Congress MP Shashi Tharoor
Congress MP Shashi Tharoor has sharply criticised the NDA government over Delimitation Bill in response to Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu’s support for the legislation with what he described as a ‘thought experiment’.
While reiterating that the Congress supports women’s reservation in legislatures, Tharoor argued that linking the implementation of women’s quota to delimitation could fundamentally alter India’s federal balance. He further asserted that the bill would disproportionately increase the political influence of more populous northern states in comparison to southern.
