Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge has written to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, urging him to call an all-party meeting to discuss the revised Constitution (131st Amendment) Bill, following the government's reported plans to reintroduce the delimitation bill during the Monsoon session.

Kharge highlighted that the previous attempt to pass the bill in April faced opposition resistance, with critics alleging it aimed to advantage the BJP by redrawing Lok Sabha seats based on population.He emphasized the need for transparency, requesting Modi to share details of the proposed changes with the opposition for adequate scrutiny.

The Congress leadership, including AICC spokesman Jairam Ramesh, noted that despite splitting rival parties like the TMC and Shiv Sena, the Modi government remains far from achieving the 2/3rd majority required for constitutional amendments.

Ramesh also addressed the DMK and NCP's potential support, dismissing it as unlikely, and criticized the government's strategy of splitting parties to secure a majority, calling it unconstitutional.

The article underscores the political maneuvering around the delimitation bill, which remains a contentious issue with implications for electoral representation.
