The Centre informed the Supreme Court that it is contemplating the establishment of commissions to conduct a delimitation exercise in Arunachal Pradesh and Nagaland.
Solicitor General Tushar Mehta conveyed this to a bench comprising Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud and Justices J B Pardiwala and Manoj Misra.
The top court was hearing a plea seeking the initiation of a delimitation exercise in four northeastern states, including Arunachal Pradesh, Manipur, and Nagaland. The court had issued notices to the Centre and other relevant parties on this plea on July 25th last year.
The petition also sought directives for the formation of delimitation commissions in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Delimitation Act, 2002.
The petition argued that no delimitation exercise has been conducted in Arunachal Pradesh, Manipur, and Nagaland for the past 51 years.
