Delimitation Constitutional Process, Says Union Minister Kishan Reddy; BRS, AIMIM Call it 'Injustice' to South
News 18Lok Sabha delimitation is a constitutional process and it is not known when it will be taken up, union minister for culture G Kishan Reddy said, even as the BRS party in Telangana maintained that if it is done on the basis of population, it will be a “gross injustice” to the south. We are not making a new law on that,” Reddy said when his attention was drawn to BRS working president and minister KT Rama Rao’s comments that southern states will be likely to suffer “severe injustice” with a population-based delimitation. Back in Hyderabad, Minister KTR, talking to reporters on Thursday, said during the late 1970s and 1980s the Centre’s family planning campaign was taken up seriously by southern states and some other progressive states, resulting in lesser population growth. The minister issued a statement on Wednesday alleging that southern states are likely to suffer “severe injustice” with the population-based delimitation.
