Tamil Nadu CM Moves Resolution to Freeze Lok Sabha Seats and Implement 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. The resolution seeks to permanently fix Lok Sabha seats at 543, freeze the current inter-state seat allocation, and implement 33% women's reservation in the 2029 elections without delay. Vijay emphasized that southern states' political representation should not be reduced due to population control success, and women's reservation should not be linked to delimitation or census delays. The resolution reflects concerns over potential impacts on southern states' parliamentary voice.
