Don't try to bulldoze Bill again, call all-party meet to discuss delimitation proposals: Kharge to Modi
Leader of Opposition in the Rajya Sabha said he had first written to the Prime Minister on April 11 to convene an all-party meeting before bringing any Constitutional Amendment Bill on delimitation
Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge has written to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, urging him to call an all-party meeting to discuss any proposed Constitutional Amendment Bill related to delimitation. Kharge stated in a letter to Modi that it has been 64 days since the Monsoon Session of Parliament was adjourned sine die on August 13, and both Houses of Parliament have yet to be prorogued.
He expressed his concern over the "unprecedented" delay and reminded Modi that the proposed bill failed to secure the necessary two-thirds majority in the Lok Sabha during a previous attempt on April 17. Kharge repeated his request for an all-party meeting multiple times, emphasizing the need for all political parties to deliberate among themselves and with other stakeholders before any final decisions are made.
