What Happened
Congress MP Shashi Tharoor criticized delimitation bills in Lok Sabha Friday, warning the exercise resembles demonetisation's hasty implementation. He highlighted three concerns: imbalanced state representation, rewarding high-population states, and threats to cooperative federalism. Tharoor questioned if increasing House members beyond 800 serves parliamentary efficiency.
