At the all-party meet ahead of the Monsoon Session, RSP MP NK Premachandran dropped a bombshell: DMK is reportedly okay with reviving the bill. That’s a big deal; because without southern support, the NDA can’t cross the 2/3 majority needed. But here’s the twist: DMK isn’t giving unconditional backing. Their ask? Southern states shouldn’t lose seats; even if their population growth is slower. This isn’t just about numbers; it’s about power, parity, and post-poll calculus. With Congress and DMK already at odds over Tamil Nadu’s new government, this could push cracks into full-blown fractures. And while the NDA smiles quietly at the prospect of DMK’s vote, the real story isn’t in Delhi; it’s in Chennai, where every parliamentary seat now carries the weight of a fragile alliance. What happens next won’t just redraw maps; it could redraw alliances.
