Guwahati, July 19: The Opposition has questioned the timing of the Election Commission of India (ECI) move and the base year for delimitation.

On the other hand, AIUDF has already gone to the Supreme court against the delimitation process.

AIUDF general secretary and MLA Aminul Islam said that they has filed a case in the Supreme Court against the exercise.

The bone of contention is that Assam has over 35 percent Muslim voters and in its 126 Assembly seats. Muslims decide fate in over 30 constituencies and six out of 14 Lok Sabha seats in Assam. In 2021 when the BJP retained power it Assam..it has hard pitched it’s commitment to protect political rights of the indigenous people.

BJP claims people are with this decision.

Political watchers say the process is trapped between Assam’s complex demography. Questions is whether its only a constitution process being taken forward or its only political.

“The draft delimitation proposal has been prepared to benefit the BJP, so that it wins the upcoming Lok Sabha elections and assembly polls in Assam,” Islam said.
