Should Parliament sessions be held in South India too? This YSR Congress MP’s letter to PM Modi triggers debate

Live Mint  

YSR Congress Member of Parliament, Maddila Gurumoorthy recently urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju to hold two parliamentary sessions annually in South India. “The core thought behind this initiative is to allow for more peaceful and productive sessions in a region with a more favourable climate, ensuring smooth legislative process,” reads the letter adding that the move would also serve as a "symbolic gesture of national unity and decentralisation, showing that the Parliament is truly a body that represents the country, not just its capital". Gurumoorthy cites in the letter that in the past, Dr BR Ambedkar and former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee had been part of suggestions on holding Parliament sessions outside of Delhi. In November 1959, Independent Gurgaon MP Prakash Vir Shastri had in a Private Member’s Bill proposed to hold one session of the Lok Sabha in South India annually.
