Tamil Nadu Assembly Passes Resolution to Freeze Lok Sabha Seats, Urge Women's Reservation
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay moved a resolution in the state Assembly opposing the Union Government's proposed delimitation exercise, urging the Centre to permanently fix Lok Sabha seats at 543 and maintain current state allocations. The resolution also calls for implementing 33% women's reservation in the 2029 elections without delay, based on existing constituencies. The move aims to protect southern states' representation, especially Tamil Nadu's, which has controlled population growth, and has received support from parties including the DMK.
