Shri V. Narayanasamy

"Having regard to the fact that—

(i)   the Delimitation Act was passed by   Parliament and the process of delimitation  has  already started in various States and they are facing  a lot of  difficulties  in implementing the provisions of the Delimitation Act;

(ii)  several representations have been received from various States  and even  from  the legislators stating  that since population was the criteria adopted  for delimiting the constituencies, ignoring other conditions prevailing in various States, the basic structure of the constituencies is being changed;

(iii) in North-Eastern States there are various districts covering larger area  of lands with less  population;

(iv) if population criteria is adopted for delimiting the constituencies, the cities get more representation than the rural areas because  of the high  concentration of the population; and

(v)  the elected representatives who have become Associate Members of the  Delimitation  Commission have not been given the powers of voting at the time of taking decision under the Delimitation Act, which infringes the rights of the Members,

  this House   resolves that—

(a)  the government should  look into the practical difficulties being  experienced by various States while delimiting the  constituencies;

(b) apart from the population criteria, topography of the area, ravine, rivers districts and communities should  also be considered for delimiting the constituencies;

(c)  the  elected representatives who are Associate Members  should  also be provided with voting power so that their views are properly represented in the Delimitation Commission; and

 

(d)        the Delimitation  Act  should be  amended  accordingly.
