Agencies
Jammu, Nov 27: With the assembly elections likely to be held by May-June next year, a wire agency reported on Saturday..
Top sources indicate that the delimitation commission has completed its draft report of new and re-alignment of some old assembly seats in J&K. The commission is headed by retired Supreme Court judge, Ranjana Desai.
"The draft report is ready. It will now be shared with the associate members, including three Lok Sabha members from the National Conference (Farooq Abdullah, Hasnain Masoodi and Akbar Lone) and the BJP`s Jitendra Singh and Jugal Kishore Sharma. The commission has already been communicated that there would be no further extension of its time period which ends in March 2022," the wire agency quoted sources as having said.
After the fresh delimitation, the assembly is likely to have 90 seats. In the previous assembly there were 87 seats, four of which belonged to the Ladakh region which is a separate UT now.
The Valley had 47 and the Jammu region had 36 seats. Sources indicate that at least 6 seats would be added to the Jammu region and 2 new assembly constituencies would be carved out of the existing ones in the Valley.
In addition to this, assembly constituencies would be reserved in J&K for tribals, scheduled caste etc which is likely to throw up a different political map for the UT.
In the last state assembly, PDP had 28, BJP 25, NC 15 and the INC 12 seats. |
