| Bhim Singh demands delimitation | | |  Early Times Report
Jammu, Jan 18: NPP Supremo Prof Bhim Singh said this is shocking State of Affairs that the political parties in Jammu & Kashmir have forgotten as to what needs to be done before holding general elections to the Assembly & the Lok Sabha. This is a Constitutional tragedy that the Govt. of Jammu & Kashmir had passed a law deciding to hold Assembly elections without holding Delimitation of Assembly Constituencies till 2026. The Panthers Party had filed a writ petition in the Supreme Court which has left on the Governor when there was no Assembly to decide to hold Delimitation. The Jammu & Kashmir has its own Constitution which provides power to the Governor to amend any clause in the Constitution and the Governor of Jammu & Kashmir has power in him to hold Delimitation before holding general elections to the Assembly. This is a shame that there has been no Delimitation since 1975. It is Constitutional mandate to hold Delimitation of the Constituencies before holding the next Assembly elections. Kashmir region has got about 12,000 square kilometers of area, 46 Assembly seats and 3 Lok Sabha Constituencies. On the other hand Jammu region/province has got 28,000 square kilometers of area and population as assessed after last census was more than Kashmir region. NPP Supremo called it a great discrimination that Jammu region/province has got 2 Lok Sabha Constituencies and Kashmir region 3. In other words Jammu province has got 2 Lok Sabha seats and Kashmir province 4. Also Kashmir region has got 46 Assembly Constituencies whereas Jammu region has only 37 Assembly seats. |
