LS constituency cannot be basis for reorganisation of districts: Somireddy

Senior Telugu Desam Party leader Somireddy Chandramohan Reddy on Thursday faulted the YSRCP government for its decision to reorganise the districts on the basis of Lok Sabha constituencies.

He told the media that the Parliamentary constituencies would change every time delimitation process was undertaken. The number of districts should not be redrawn on that basis, he argued.

“The flawed district reorganisation exercise undertaken by Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy on the lines of the one taken up by his Telangana counterpart K. Chandrasekhar Rao has triggered discontent even in the ruling party camp,” he said.
