Demanding ratification of the bill in Rajya Sabha, Padmasri said the BJP did not care for women."Prime Minister Narendra Modi seems to have restricted himself to words. There is no positive action. Women should get reservation from panchayat-level to Parliament. All India Mahila Congress will take out a rally in the national capital for the reservation. We will meet the PM and submit all signatures,"Padmasri said.
