While NC MPs — Farooq Abdullah, Hasnain Masoodi and Muhammad Akbar Lone boycotted the meeting, BJP’s both Lok Sabha MPs from Jammu & Kashmir turned up in the meeting.

“An overview on the process of delimitation based on the Jammu and Kashmir Reorganization Act, 2019 and Delimitation Act, 2002 was presented before the members detailing various sections of these acts related to the delimitation exercise of Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir,” reads the handout released by the panel after its meeting.

The two associate members from BJP — Dr. Jitendra Singh and Jugal Kishore — appreciated the Commission’s efforts and suggested that delimitation of constituencies shall be as far as practicable, be for geographically compact areas and while delimiting them regard shall be given to physical features; existing boundaries of administrative units; facilities of communication and public convenience.

“They also suggested to give special attention to the difficult terrains while carrying out the delimitation exercise in the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir,” reads the handout.

“The members desired to put forward more suggestions in coming days,” the handout further states.

According to sources, BJP members suggested to the Commission that it should not rely only on population but geographical conditions of Jammu region should be taken into consideration while carrying out the process.
