Tamil Nadu Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay has convened a crucial all-party meeting over the Centre's proposed delimitation exercise, with the state's political parties discussing its potential impact on Tamil Nadu and southern states. However, the meeting has been boycotted by the DMK and AIADMK, along with several other parties. The TVK government says the meeting will help decide the state's next course of action if the delimitation bill is introduced in Parliament. The DMK, meanwhile, has questioned the timing of the meeting and called for discussions on other pressing issues, while the AIADMK has maintained its position on the delimitation process.
