The Delimitation Bill 2026 was withdrawn by the government, while a new Electoral Reform Bill has been introduced to overhaul the electoral process.
The government has formally withdrawn the Delimitation Bill 2026, which had aimed to redraw parliamentary and assembly constituencies.
The withdrawal comes after concerns over the bill's impact on electoral balance and political representation.
In parallel, lawmakers have introduced the Electoral Reform Bill, which seeks to modernise voting procedures and enhance transparency, though specific provisions remain under discussion.
Analysts say the move reflects a shift towards stabilising the political map while addressing long‑standing electoral reforms.
