The delimitation “sales pitch” by the government is like that of an insurance salesman, they say one thing & the fine print says something else.

@dipunair @khushsundar @ptrmadurai The major reason for PTRs educational qualifications could also be due to entitlement. We don’t know if Khushboo came up from the ranks or was similarly entitled. Conversely would PTR have acquired the education if he were from the cattle class? Comparing apples with oranges.
English
Educational qualifications -
@khushsundar - 9th failed
@ptrmadurai - Engineering degree from NIT Trichy, a master's degree (implied SUNY), and an MBA in Finance from the MIT Sloan School of Management.
Khushbu is literally the Smriti Irani lite version of BJP from south!🤡

@sardesairajdeep My take. @sardesairajdeep should seriously consider quitting as a media person and join politics, which he is (c)overtly doing anyway, before giving his lousy sermons on what the ruling party should do. He can be more silly with full of bluster and noise then.
English
My take: if the Modi govt is serious about women’s reservation ahead of 2029 GE , simple solution: just amend Article 334 A and go back to the 2010 bill formula that provided one third seats for women from existing 543 seats. Doesn’t need a link with census or delimitation. Can be done tomorrow morning!!🙏

Rajdeep's Take on Women's Reservation Bill & Delimitation Debate If the Modi government is truly serious about women’s empowerment and women’s reservation, why not simply stick to the original 2010 bill — a legislation that was already passed in the Rajya Sabha? There are 543 seats; go ahead and reserve one‑third of them for women- @sardesairajdeep #NewsToday

@KartiPC We guess you know your english when you reproduced the post . Not sure about the original contributors skills though, with words like gerrymandering!!
English
Yes to Women’s Reservation, but within a Parliament of 543 members.
No to a house of 850 after delimitation & gerrymandering.
English
@KartiPC To claim that increasing MPs is "ineffective" is to argue that a single person can effectively represent 25 lakhs people. Historically, no healthy democracy has ever successfully functioned with such a massive ratio.
English
An 850-member Parliament will be even more ineffective than the current 543-member House. MPs are legislators, not administrative executives. Simply adding more of them does not—and cannot—improve constituency administration, because MPs are not the administrative heads of their constituencies.
English
@ravikchandar Does he even make any sense, comparing two incomparable? Next he will say that education is more important than even parents, so on and so forth. Very rhetoric than imaginative

@sumanthraman What do you think is the problem? Emotional responses do not take one very far. The per capita MP is the highest in the country and we are not able to fix accountability from them. Lesser per capita would help there. Ideally we need an MP for every 10 Lakh citizens
English
Quite apart from the unjust manner in which delimitation is planned, the thought of another 300 freeloaders living off the taxpayer is quite disgusting. Does anyone seriously believe India's problems are because we have too few MPs?

@karthik11235 @TripurariMedia Annamalai is a very tall and mature leader and is more capable than all the 2nd generation leaders put together starting from Udhayanidhi and moving down

@karthik11235 @ShryanshJain4 These are the facts of the day whether one likes it or not. Rich will always gain more than the poor
English
@ShryanshJain4 You have 100 rs and I have 50 rs.
You are richer by 50rs. Am poor by 50rs.
Doubling it makes you richer by 100rs. Me gets poorer by 100rs.
You will support it because you are getting richer.
Now you will take that money also from me saying I have more mouths to feed than me.
English
@karthik11235 It is purely DMKs problem. We don’t even know the contours of the proposals except the fear-mongering by these politicians
English
@sanjayuvacha Fallacy of ad hominem, a logical error where one attacks his opponent’s character, motive, or attributes rather than addressing the substance of their argument. After all if something goes wrong the Courts can easily intervene unless this writer is casting aspersions on them too.
English
Absolute bunkum.
The constitutional amendments proposed do not reference the 2011 census, but ANY census that Parliament may decide. Nothing prevents this Parliament from using the 2027 census which will be available before the 2029 elections.
Every question of delimitation will be left to a delimitation commission without constitutional protection or guidance. It will be headed by a retired Supreme Court judge who may be trusted to remain as fair in the commission as in the previous avatar in court.
Without a full road map, jumping into constitutional amendments that would distort power within the federation, disproportionately empower the populous states at the expense of the disciplined states, will be casting an unfair and iniquitous burden on the latter. An imperfect union can survive but an unjust union won't.

There’s massive confusion on Delimitation , mostly manufactured, partly misunderstood. Let’s set the facts straight 👇 GOI has NOT said seats will be redistributed purely on population basis. The reference is 2011 Census, but that does NOT automatically mean “North gains, South loses.” The idea being discussed = increase total seats (~50%), not aggressively cut or shift existing ones. 👉 In simple terms: Expand the pie, don’t reshuffle it brutally. So why the panic? Because people are mixing 3 different things: Census data 📊 Population-based allocation ⚖️ Seat expansion ➕ These are NOT the same. Also remember,Delimitation has been frozen for decades to ensure states controlling population are not punished. Now suddenly every discussion is being spun as: “South will lose power” That’s not what has been officially stated. Reality check: ✔ No final formula notified ✔ No official redistribution model released ✔ Only broad direction discussed But social media is already running full political narratives. Bottom line: Until a clear framework is out, everything else is speculation, fear mongering, or agenda driven noise. Let policy come first. Debate later.
English
@madversity Unfortunately the present dispensation is taking a very narrow and possibly parochial view and losing out on the elite status of being the voice of Indian south. Other southern states may well argue that TN is getting excessive parliamentary representation.
English
If India is the voice of the Global South, #TamilNadu is the voice of the Indian South -- which involves much more than southern India.

@sardesairajdeep @ptrmadurai Unfortunately PTR is all bluster and noise in trying to defend a lousy position taken by his party. He thinks that his skills in the language, conceit and false bravado would be sufficient to take on the major party. Of course, you are aiding and abetting this silliness

Narendra Modi is 2 years older than Stalin. But look at the vibrancy in Modi's movements which is completely absent in that of Stalin.
Also Stalin does not interact with common people. The max he does is wave intermittently when he is surrounded by guards.

A roadshow after the roadshow! Making today’s Nagercoil visit even more special was a roadshow after the planned route of the original roadshow. This indicates the strong popularity in favour of the NDA.

AIADMK’s biggest strength is its allies. Their votes are Vijay‑proof. PMK is around 4%, AMMK 2%, and BJP 4%, giving the alliance roughly 10% in its kitty. The lowest ever vote share AIADMK has managed was 19% in the 2019 parliamentary elections, so the bare minimum that AIADMK+ starts with is 29%. In Assembly polls, the lowest vote share AIADMK recorded was 31.4% in the 2001 elections. Assuming it dips to 25% due to TVK, the AIADMK combine could be at 35% currently. If it captures some share of the anti‑incumbency, the AIADMK alliance could end up between 35% and 40%.
