Transcript
00:00So it's a big day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressing the Lok Sabha with not just a speech that had
00:05very carefully chosen words
00:07but there was a lot of commotion also, a back and forth of reactions.
00:11Prime Minister Modi also in fact seen in quite a hearty mood while he was speaking on a very important
00:16issue of Nari Shakti.
00:17It was pertinent to note that there were of course metaphors added, mentions considering that this is a very crucial
00:24bill
00:25and Prime Minister Modi came prepared. He assured that the bills will not benefit any one political party
00:31and also then added that offering a guarantee that women's quota will not do injustice, will not discriminate,
00:37there won't be any change and that it will be about rights that women deserve,
00:43that they are not asking for it and we are not doing them a favour, it's their right that has
00:47been granted to them.
00:48Thank you very much.
01:18And I wish you were to know all the other things that you need us it's your own,
01:29I would need a way to do it and I don't know all the other things that we are in
01:34the same way.
01:34We are looking for this country that we make a new direction and have a new direction since the planet,
01:46I think that we are doing nothing.
01:47For the sake of our country, I think,
01:47Eh, there are not any changes in our nation,
01:47our country,iegail
01:48and the nation,
02:00Just in case you missed, four key highlights from Prime Minister Modi's speech at 4pm on India Today.
02:07Do not politicize or seek credit over the bill.
02:10That's what Prime Minister said, that nobody is seeking any kind of headline.
02:13It will not do any injustice.
02:15There is no credit over the bill.
02:17And this is a tug of war because the opposition is saying that the government of the centre and PM
02:22Modi intend to politicize and want to take sole credit over the bill.
02:26Now here's headline two that has come in over what Prime Minister Modi primarily said.
02:31And the speech that focused on the Danari Shakti bill, that 50% of opposition is backing the women's bill,
02:38though in private.
02:39Now the opposition says our angst is primarily against the delimitation aspect of it.
02:44However, for now, Prime Minister Modi is saying that he's had his talks with those in opposition and realizes that
02:5050% opposition completely backing women's bill.
02:56Women will not forgive those blocking the bill.
02:59So he's made it with a direct connect to women on the ground that these are rights that women have
03:03always deserved.
03:04And shockingly, it wasn't given to them all these decades.
03:07And it's this government finally bringing it in.
03:09And finally, the fourth headline, the key highlight that has come in from Prime Minister Modi's speech.
03:14My intent is clear, no injustice to any state.
03:18Now this is a reference to delimitation because that's what the opposition is focusing on what precisely is possibly what
03:26opposition or Congress has also said.
03:28Malikarjan Kharki said bill appears mischievous and devious focusing on the delimitation aspect, the North versus South divide.
03:34To which Prime Minister Modi assuring intent is clear, no injustice will be done to any state.
03:40This is in reference to the seats that could come in for the Lok Sabha after the delimitation.
03:46Let's go across on the ground.
03:48India Today's full team of reporters has been on the ground in the parliament and they've been tracking what exactly
03:52is happening on this.
03:54I'm joined by my colleague, Aishwarya Paliwal.
03:57Aishwarya, so how's the day been like?
04:00The opposition is fully prepared.
04:01They are united in their voice.
04:03But Prime Minister Modi also had quite a speech that he put forth.
04:08But I noticed there was laughter, humour, there were of course serious mentions vis-a-vis the speech.
04:15Well, you know, a lot of lighter notes, Pooja, let me tell you that.
04:18Prime Minister Modi in fact said that I am giving you a guarantee because that was the word that was
04:22being used by a couple of BJP MPs and they said we want a guarantee.
04:25He then said that if you do not like the word guarantee, you tell me a word in Tamil and
04:29then I will make sure that I say that.
04:31In fact, also, you know, he ended his speech by saying that whenever in Indian culture we start something new,
04:37you know, to save it from evil eye, we actually use the talatika.
04:40So, thank you very much for being that talatika.
04:43Now, this was a direct reference to the DNK MPs who in fact are in parliament wearing black.
04:48Prime Minister Modi in fact also said that I am giving you a guarantee and I am telling you I
04:52will give you a personal check, a blank check.
04:55Whoever wants to take credit can take credit.
04:57In fact, went a step further and said on the government money, you tell me the names and the photographs
05:03of those who you want to be published and we will do that.
05:06I will give you the credit if credit is all that you are seeking.
05:09But let me tell you, we also mentioned that we will give you the details of what exactly has happened
05:13over the past so many years,
05:15why this bill could not see the light of the day.
05:18That is something that Prime Minister Modi spoke about and also said that the highlights will be given by Home
05:22Minister Amid Shah.
05:23So, let me tell you, this is just a trailer that has been given by the Prime Minister.
05:27When Home Minister Amid Shah will speak tomorrow, he will flip through the pages of history and then pinpoint at
05:32the opposition.
05:33Just a trailer picture is still there because Home Minister Amid Shah will have more details when it comes to
05:39the bill.
05:40Prime Minister Modi was more about assuring not just the political parties in opposition but also the masses who are
05:46watching
05:46because there has been a concern of whether there will be delimitation that will have an impact,
05:50whether this is just tokenism to have women representatives in the parliament.
05:54So, let's listen in now.
05:56Prime Minister Modi had this to say about the opposition parties and how.
06:00Let's try and decode what did he mean.
06:33As it wasçśźçš„,
06:33I think that I would advise them too, I would advise them, and I would advise them, and everyone will
06:39come.

07:55I want to look at the law of the people who have seen in the past 30 years.
