New Delhi: The fight over the Women`s Reservation Bill will continue as there is no dilution in RJD`s stand on it, party supremo Lalu Prasad on Friday said.

"The fight will continue and there will be no dilution of our stand on women`s quota issue," Lalu told reporters outside Parliament.

He said his party was not against reservation for women "but there should be reservation for Dalit, Muslim and other backward women who are struggling in the fields."

Asked about his party`s future course of action, he said, "We will decide soon."

On the all-party meeting called over the issue, he said, "We will express our views on the proposed all-party meeting. However, no date has been fixed for the meeting yet."
