00:00In Parliament, delimitation bill. What Rahul Gandhi is saying, he defeated the bill.
00:07Even Stalin is saying Tamil Nadu defeated Delhi or Modi. I can't understand the logic.
00:14I'm a senior politician of this country. I had 48 years. First time I became member of
00:22Legislative Assembly 1978. Now very simple, 1996, Dewey Gowda introduced I was the convener of UF.
00:32He introduced the Women's Reservation Bill. Congress was allied. They used to support.
00:37They opposed it. Then we cannot move forward. Then again, two, three times,
00:42Vajapaiji NDA-1 has introduced the bill. Congress didn't support. Again, Congress UPA has come.
00:50They brought the bill. Parliament, Rajasabha, they passed the bill with the support of BJP.
00:57Lokasabha, not supporting their allies in the name of that, they denied. They postponed.
01:03Again, 23, Honorable Prime Minister introduced the bill. He was able to communicate, convince the nation.
01:11With that pressure, they are able to pass the bill. Again, Honorable Prime Minister wanted to
01:16prepone in execution. That bill is very clear. After census, then only delimitation.
01:23Even, we have to keep in mind, even 2001, delimitations, delimitation bill has brought.
01:30At that time, Vajapaiji was the Prime Minister. South India population, compared to North India,
01:36is reducing. If you go to 91 census, we should have lost seats. He made it very clear.
01:43Every state will have standard, same number. Within the state, on the base of population,
01:49we will readjust. Even Andhra Pradesh, I have seen, East Godhari, West Godhari, two, three seats
01:54were lost. In Telangana, that is Rangari district, six seats were gained. Because everybody migrated
02:01to Hyderabad. That is how it has happened. Now, this bill, what is this bill? He made it very clear.
02:07No state will lose seats. Every state, 50% enhancement will be there.
02:14Tamil Nadu, 39. Another 20. That means 59. Andhra Pradesh, 25. Another 13. 38. UP, 80. Another 40. 120.
02:25Pro-rata, basing on existing seats, 50% enhancement. Among that, 33% women reservations.
02:33How South India is losing seats? What is the injustice for South India or smaller states or
02:40Northeastern states? Now, Congress has to tell. DMK has to tell. What is your victory? You betrayed
02:46the women. For the last three decades, I am a living example for that. I am also a participant.
02:5396, it started. 26, we are here. You deferred. You defeated the bill. Now, when you are going to
03:00execute it, why you are done. Now, 26 is due for delimitations again. What is your goal?
03:07What is your idea? Are you having any clue? You want delimitations is inevitable. Now,
03:13better than this, any other formula? Under these circumstances, this is the best formula. They
03:19brought it. No state will get any setback or injustice. South India, no injustice for South India.
03:27Or otherwise, if you go present census, South India will lose heavily. Now, I am asking DMK
03:34as to answer this. They are branding me. I am not supporting South India. I am also Dravidian.
03:40You have to keep it in mind.
