The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government will reintroduce the Delimitation Bill with an explicit provision guaranteeing a 50 per cent proportional increase in seats across all states, key ally and Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu said, offering the first public confirmation from within the ruling coalition of its intent to revive the stalled legislative
package.
In an interview with media, whose Telugu Desam Party (TDP) lends crucial support of 16 MPs to the NDA, also said the government would move simultaneously on women’s reservation.
“The NDA government will bring the Delimitation Bill and introduce women’s reservation soon. It is the need of the hour if we want to introduce reservation of women in politics. This has my full support,” he said.
