Congress Calls for Parliament Prorogation and Dialogue on Delimitation IssuePreviousNext

The Congress party has urged the government to prorogue both houses of Parliament and initiate an all-party dialogue on the delimitation issue. Congress leader Jairam Ramesh emphasized that meaningful discussions require the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. He highlighted the unprecedented delay since the Monsoon session was adjourned sine die on August 13 and criticized the Modi government’s failed attempts to pass delimitation bills, noting opposition unity and dissent among NDA allies. Congress also called for suspending the Special Intensive Revision and restoring public trust in the electoral process.
