SAD backs Women's Reservation and Delimitation Bills following PM Modi-Sukhbir Badal talks
The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) declared its backing for the Women's Reservation and Delimitation Bills on Saturday. The move follows a meeting between SAD leader Sukhbir Singh Badal and Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi, sparking rumors of a potential BJP-SAD partnership ahead of the Punjab elections. Reports indicate that the SAD has pushed for a consistent 50% rise in seats for every state, while also calling for equitable representation for regional groups.
