Telangana chief minister Revanth Reddy is a very feisty personality, and he likes to keep his political hands on their feet with his constant verbal reprimand. Now he has taken on Prime Minister, Narendra Modi and the central government regarding the delimitation issue.
Considering the fact that the central government had announced the proposal for delimitation, which would substantially increase the number of Parliament and Assembly seats in India, Revanth had a strong reaction to the same.
Revanth pointed out that South Indian states have financial capitals which generate significant amount of revenue which contributes to the national index as well. On the other hand, the north Indian states have the political capitals which control the country in political terms.
The chief minister stated that political capitals have the tenacity to look down on financial capitals, which is a very bad thing. “ We are completely against bowing down to the Delhi bosses. What kind of logic is it for us, South Indian states to deliver all the revenue and contributed to the center?” Revanth questioned.
The delimitation of Lok Sabha seats may benefit the BJP in the short run, but if it is unfair to Southern and smaller states, it could weaken the country in the long run. National interest must be placed above any party interest, Revanth concluded on the matter.
Delimitation is likely to nearly double the number of parliamentary and assembly seats in the Telugu states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. This could completely change the political equilibrium in the Telugu states and the Telangana CM is clearly against the same.
