The BJP's 'Mission 360' is a strategic push to secure the necessary two-thirds majority for constitutional amendments, specifically focusing on women's reservation and delimitation. With the Lok Sabha's effective strength at 540 members, the BJP needs 360 MPs to pass such amendments. The current tally stands at around 293 MPs, leaving a significant gap. The BJP is counting on support from various regional parties, including the DMK, whose stance may differ from the Congress on key issues. The NDA's strength could increase to around 346 if six MPs from the Shiv Sena (UBT) shift to the Eknath Shinde faction and if Sharad Pawar's party extends support. However, the NDA still needs six more MPs to reach the two-thirds threshold. Home Minister Amit Shah has been holding meetings with key political figures, and an all-party meeting on July 19 will brief opposition parties on the legislative agenda. The focus is on translating parliamentary arithmetic into legislative success, with intense speculation over the constitutional Bills.
