B. Manickam Tagore is the President of Tamil Nadu Congress Committee (TNCC)
GK and monthly revision
How can there be a fair delimitation when it is a fraud: TNCC president
Tamil Nadu Congress Committee (TNCC) President B. Manickam Tagore criticized DMK and AIADMK for reversing their stance on the delimitation Bill within months and boycotting the all-party meeting convened by Chief Minister M.K. Stalin. The delimitation exercise, based on the 2026 Census, could reduce Tamil Nadu's Lok Sabha seats due to its successful population control, raising federalism concerns. Tagore accused both Dravidian parties of political opportunism, undermining the state's unified opposition to the Bill. This highlights the Centre-state tension over representation and the 84th Constitutional Amendment freeze on delimitation until 2026.
