Delimitation provisions in women's reservation amendment bill 'attack on democracy': Kerala Oppn
Opposition leaders from Kerala have opposed the delimitation provisions tied to the implementation of the Womens Reservation Act, arguing that linking 33% quota to a future census and seat redistribution is a “hidden trap” that could distort federal balance. They warn the exercise may disproportionately increase seats in northern states while marginalising the south, and have demanded that reservation be implemented within the current Lok Sabha strength instead.
