To curb the speculation with facts regarding the 3 bills introduced in a special session on April 17, we personally did the work and tried to clarify most of the Que. Open for suggestions.

Why Modi govt is not giving women’s reservations on 543 seats? Because it will upset their male leaders.

Look at this data:

Reservation on 543 — Women - 181, Men - 362
Reservation on 850 — Women - 283, Men - 567

This is men’s reservation not women.

The answer can be found in Europe, where the principle of degressive proportionality is applied to the composition of the European Parliament — since they have the same problem of small and big states coexisting in one Union.

India also needs a compromise between strict democratic representation (one person, one vote) and the necessity of ensuring smaller political entities have a meaningful voice. It essentially means that while larger populations get more seats, the ratio of citizens to representatives increases as the population grows.

In the European Parliament, the allocation must follow these constraints:
*Minimum Threshold: No member state can have fewer than 6 seats.
*Maximum Ceiling: No member state can have more than 96 seats.
*Inverse Ratio: The "efficiency" of a vote must decrease as population increases. For example, a Member of the European Parliament (MEP) from Malta might represent roughly 80,000 citizens, while an MEP from Germany represents roughly 850,000 citizens.

The goal is to prevent the "Big Four" (Germany, France, Italy, and Spain) from holding a permanent absolute majority that could override the collective interests of the smaller nations, thereby maintaining the federalist spirit of the Union.

Applying this to India is what we need to debate, not women’s representation which no one objects to. We need to address the North-South divide that has arisen over delimitation. A strict population-based reallocation (proportional representation) would drastically increase seats for northern Hindi-belt states like Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, while states that successfully implemented population control (like Kerala and Tamil Nadu) would see their relative political influence diminish.

If India were to adopt a degressive model, the Parliament could be structured to balance population with federal equity. Similar to the EU, a "floor" could be set for smaller states (e.g., Goa, Sikkim, or the Northeast) to ensure they aren't reduced to insignificance. Instead of a fixed ratio of, say, 2 million citizens per MP, the ratio could scale. A state with 200 million people might have 2.5 million citizens per MP, while a state with 30 million might have 1 million per MP. This is to ensure no state feels disenfranchised. As @revanth_anumula suggests, another factor could be a state’s contribution to national GDP. It would be dangerous for our federalism if smaller states felt their prosperity & human development were being punished with relative disenfranchisement.

One could argue that the Rajya Sabha already exists for federal representation. However, degressive proportionality in the Lok Sabha would provide a "weighted" democratic mandate that acknowledges population without penalizing states for their developmental successes.

Finding a mathematical formula that satisfies both the high-growth and low-growth states, and both the large and small states, would require a level of bipartisan and interstate cooperation that it is in the interests of the central government to promote. I urge PM @narendramodi to initiate extensive consultations, with all parties and with all states, before rushing into a hasty delimitation process that leaves the core underlying issues unaddressed.

[Shantanu @shaandelhite]

The southern states which contribute more to the GDP and have controlled their population will be punished and the northern states which didn’t control population and are on the lowest rank in all human and social index will be benefited.

As a South Indian, my view on delimitation

South India has been doing the hard things right for decades, controlled population, investing in education, building strong economies, and contributing a disproportionate share to the country’s taxes and growth.

And now, with delimitation, it feels like that is being penalised, not rewarded ❌

States like Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Kerala, and Andhra Pradesh focused on sustainable growth and governance, while population-heavy states like Uttar Pradesh and Bihar now stand to gain more political power purely due to numbers.

Southern states contribute a disproportionately high share to India’s GDP and tax pool:
- Tamil Nadu → manufacturing powerhouse
- Karnataka → tech & startup capital
- Telangana → pharma & IT growth
- Andhra Pradesh → infrastructure & exports

This creates a troubling signal:

Do the right things → lose influence
Ignore them → gain representation

It’s not just about seats in Parliament, it’s about losing a voice in shaping the country’s future, despite contributing significantly to it.

As a South Indian, this doesn’t feel like fair representation. It feels like the rules are changing in a way that undermines progress and shifts power away from those who earned it.

[G Dhananjheyan @Dhananjayang]

What’s this Delimitation bill proposed to be implemented with increase in Parliamentary seats to 850 based on 2011 Census and how the powers will change between South & North?.

Check this State-wise analysis of current seats & proposed based on 2011 census:

South States currently have 24% representation. It will get reduced to 20% (166 seats - increase of just 36 seats in 850).

Five Northern States have 37% representation now. It will get increased to 43% (367 seats - increase of 167 seats compared to 200 now)

Population controls effectively followed by Southern States will lose out their power in parliament effectively with this delimitation if implemented.

Not Fair to Southern States if 2011 census is the basis for seats allocated in 850.

All political parties of Tamil Nadu must resist and seek proportional seats of 203 (24% of 850) in the proposed increase in number of representatives in the ensuing debate on the bill, to be presented in Parliament ✍️

Now, even as #Visakhapatnam being branded as IT Hub of AP, the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing goes to Vijayawada.

I am once again reupping my article from 2022. The article clearly discusses Sivaramakrishnan committee’s recommendations on Andhra Capital. See what it says about region between Vijayawada & Guntur .

As per recent politics in AP, Vizag will remain as secondary grade Tier -2 forever. I am optimistic that fate of Vizag will change atleast in future but one region ppl succeeded in their politics. I wish them all the best.

[VizagPanda @VizagPanda]

Vizag is fcuked and we voted for it. Now @ysjagan ia also not interested in vizag. So better relocate to some other state or country.

[Aditya Sharma @1nonly1adi]

Mark my words these clowns will take away all infra projects like Vizag metro away to their region and claim capital so has to be prioritised.

Now Vizag people can go eat more muri mixture at Beach 🤡
