Delimitation | Why Delimitation Has Become Flashpoint Between Centre And Southern States
As the debate over the proposed delimitation exercise intensifies, the BJP finds itself facing growing resistance from southern states, raising concerns that the issue could deepen the political divide between them. The Vindhyas are emerging as a political fault line for the BJP, raising fears that the party could be branded as a "northern party" in the South. Notably, the Vindhya or Vindhyachal range - stretching from Gujarat to Bihar - has long served as a major geographical, climatic and cultural divide, separating the North's Indo-Gangetic plains from the southern Deccan Plateau.
