Delimitation Bill is profound shift in political power: Congress leader Shashi Tharoor
Delimitation requires profound discussion, said Congress leader Shashi Tharoor. He said the same haste government showed during demonetisation and the delimitation exercise is political demonetisation.
The 50% formula proposed by Amit Shah is precarious political statement, it is not promised by legislature, alleged Mr. Tharoor.
Expanding the LS to 850 seats will result in a body that is unworkable. With the size of the LS increased, there is no proposal to increase the size of RS, it will create an imbalance between two house, said Mr. Tharoor.
We will support the women reservation Bill but for the Delimitation Bill let us defer, remarked Mr. Tharoor.
