Congress chief Kharge writes to PM on bill involving delimitation, seeks all-party meeting

16 Jul 2026 Evaluate

Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge wrote to Prime Minister Narendra Modi over reports that the government is now planning to reintroduce a Constitution amendment bill that would involve delimitation, urging him to convene an all-party meeting to discuss the revised proposals.

In his letter to PM, Kharge said he had written to Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju during March and April, seeking an all-party meeting on the government’s proposals on delimitation and related issues. He said unfortunately, these requests had not been accepted. The Constitution (131st Amendment) Bill, 2026, then failed to secure the required 2/3 majority in Lok Sabha on 17 April, 2026 by a clear margin. Kharge added political parties should be given adequate time to study the revised proposals before they are introduced.

The letter came days after it emerged that the government is learnt to be working on multiple formulations to increase the number of Lok Sabha seats for all states by 50 per cent to assuage the concerns of southern states, as it seeks to operationalise a fresh draft of the Constitution amendment bill on women's quota law. 

The Congress has already indicated that it will strongly oppose the proposed delimitation bill if it is reintroduced during the Monsoon Session of Parliament, which is scheduled to run from July 20 to August 13. The party finalised its strategy at a meeting of the Congress Parliamentary Strategy Group chaired by Congress Parliamentary Party chief Sonia Gandhi and attended by Kharge, Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi and other senior leaders.

Under the government’s plan, Lok Sabha seats would be increased to a maximum of 850 from 543 to operationalise the women’s quota law before the 2029 parliamentary polls through a delimitation exercise based on the last published census.
