In a move aimed at addressing delimitation concerns, Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has tabled a resolution in the state assembly to freeze the number of Lok Sabha seats at 543.
The Kerala Legislative Assembly saw the table of a resolution by Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan in recent proceedings, calling for the number of Lok Sabha seats to be frozen at the current figure of 543.
The resolution seeks to prevent any future changes to the seat count until a comprehensive delimitation exercise can be undertaken, thereby ensuring stability in representation.
This move comes amid nationwide debates over delimitation and the potential reshuffling of parliamentary constituencies, with several states expressing concerns about how changes could affect their political balance.
The resolution will now be debated and voted upon by the assembly, and its outcome could influence the broader national discussion on delimitation policy.
