Tamil Nadu Assembly Opposes Delimitation and Simultaneous Polls
The Tamil Nadu Assembly, led by Chief Minister MK Stalin, recently passed resolutions opposing two significant electoral reform proposals by the Central Government of India. The first resolution was against the delimitation process, which involves redrawing constituency boundaries based on population changes. Tamil Nadu’s opposition stems from concerns that states with effective population control, like itself, would be unfairly penalized with fewer parliamentary seats. The second resolution opposed the ‘One Nation, One Election’ policy, aiming for simultaneous elections for the Lok Sabha and state assemblies. This proposal was criticized for being impractical and a threat to the constitutional guarantee of independent and fair elections. The Assembly, including various political parties, unanimously supported these resolutions, emphasizing the need to uphold democratic principles and state rights.
