Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has criticised Home Minister Amit Shah's assurance on delimitation, calling it untrustworthy. He argues that the proposed exercise could disadvantage southern states, echoing concerns raised by Tamil Nadu's MK Stalin. Siddaramaiah contends that southern states, having controlled population growth and focused on development since the 1971 census, may lose MP seats to northern states with higher populations but less development.
