Sonia Gandhi Questions Timing of Special Parliament Session Amid Elections

Senior Congress leader Sonia Gandhi has launched a sharp attack on the central government over key issues such as women’s reservation, delimitation, and the caste census. She also questioned the timing and intent behind convening a special session of Parliament.

Gandhi raised concerns about why the session was being called at a time when election campaigns in states like Tamil Nadu and West Bengal are at their peak. She alleged that the move appears politically motivated and aimed at gaining electoral advantage.

Highlighting broader concerns, she argued that delimitation—not women’s reservation—is the more critical issue that needs immediate attention. Gandhi also emphasized the importance of conducting a caste census, suggesting that these matters have significant implications for representation and policy-making.

Accusing the government of attempting to derive “political benefit,” she called into question the priorities and intentions behind the special session.

The remarks have added to the ongoing political debate, as opposition parties continue to challenge the government’s decisions during the election season.
