'Political demonetisation': Tharoor slams Centre for linking women’s reservation with delimitation
Congress leader Shashi Tharoor urged the government to implement women's reservation immediately, separate from the delimitation process.
He argued that delimitation requires extensive discussion, unlike the reservation bill which the opposition fully supports.
Tharoor cautioned against a rushed approach, likening it to 'political demonetisation' and advocating for broader consultation.
