The Congress has lent its full support to regional forces fighting to strengthen the federal structure of the country and taking on the central government to block its “unfair and unjust” delimitation of Lok Sabha seats.
Flexing its muscles against the proposed delimitation exercise, the ruling DMK is convening the first meeting of the Joint-Action Committee (JAC) on March 22 (Saturday) in Chennai with three non-BJP Chief Ministers and Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister as well as leaders of political parties confirming their participation.
Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Friday extended his support to the conference organized by his Tamil Nadu counterpart and DMK supremo MK Stalin in Chennai against the proposed delimitation of parliamentary constituencies.
Karnataka Chief Minister S Siddarmaiah has deputed his deputy, Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar, to represent the state and party at the delimitation meeting convened by Tamil Nadu Chief Minister and DMK supremo MK Stalin.
The first part of the Budget session drew to a close on February 13.
The meeting, attended by 40 registered political parties, barring the BJP and two other minor parties, endorsed the resolutions placed by Stalin.
The court said the exercise was already carried out in the local bodies in 2015 based on the 2011 census.
While his Andhra Pradesh counterpart Chandrababu Naidu recently announced that his government was considering incentives for families having more children, the Tamil Nadu chief minister did not elaborate on his big family vision.
He said if the parliamentary seats are reduced, only the BRS would be able to fight for Telangana.
