Union Minister Kiren Rijiju welcomed the Shiromani Akali Dal's revised stance on women's reservation. The party now supports immediate passage of the women's reservation and delimitation bills. This development follows a meeting between SAD president Sukhbir Singh Badal and Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The government seeks to implement 33 percent women's reservation in legislatures by 2029. This move aims for fair and equitable delimitation ensuring equal representation for all states.

Shiromani Akali Dal supports the Women’s Reservation Bill and calls for equitable delimitation for fair representation in Parliament.

Sukhbir Singh Badal's meeting with PM Modi signals potential revival of the Akali Dal-BJP alliance, as SAD backs the Centre's Delimitation Bill and Women's Reservation Bill.
