NCP (SP) to offer conditional support to Delimitation Bill
in5points
NCP (SP) working president Supriya Sule said the party will support the Delimitation Bill only if the NDA government guarantees a uniform 50% increase in Lok Sabha seats across all states.
Sule demanded that the bill spell out the formula for redrawing parliamentary constituency boundaries.
The comments come amid speculation the NDA may introduce the bill in the monsoon session starting July 20.
Sule claimed the centre earlier assured a 50% cap on seat increase, but the bill's earlier version did not reflect that.
