DMK Sets Conditions for Supporting Delimitation Bill in Parliament

The DMK may support the Centre's proposed delimitation Bill if the government agrees to three specific conditions, including a 25-year extension of the current seat freeze.

The party demands a 50% blanket increase in Lok Sabha seats for all states and a clear schedule detailing seat allocations in the proposed legislative package.

The government currently lacks the 360-vote threshold required for a constitutional amendment in the 540-member Lok Sabha, despite recent efforts to secure support from smaller parties.
