M.K. Stalin (Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu and president of the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam party) expressed strong opposition to the Delimitation Bill proposed by the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government during a campaign rally in Dharmapuri. He warned that the bill would effectively render Tamils as second-class citizens in their own country by diminishing their representation in Parliament. Stalin raised concerns about the lack of voice for Tamil MPs, questioning how they could advocate for their constituents if their representation is compromised. He urged the Tamil community to vocalize their dissent against the bill, emphasizing that failure to act now could lead to a complete erosion of their political voice. His remarks reflect broader apprehensions within Tamil Nadu regarding the implications of the bill on regional representation and identity.
