In a post attributed to Bhagwat and Hosabale, RSS said on X, “Bharat’s Parliament has created a new history by passing the ‘Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam 2023’, which ensures women's empowerment and equal participation.” Calling the move an important decision, RSS said it will make the country’s democratic system stronger and more inclusive.

“The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh considers this as a welcome and commendable step. We are confident that women's participation will add new dimensions to the country's development," RSS said.
