IT IS AN ENLIGHTENING PIECE OF INFOMATION INDEED BY MR GOKAN. THIS AUTHOR WISHES TO SHARE A PERTINENT OBSERVATION MADE BY A FORMER MINISTER OF THE RULING PRTY TWO DECADES BACK. SHE WAS QUITE VOCAL IN SAYING THAT REDRAWING LOK SABHA CONSTITUENCIES ON POPULATION BASIS WOULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE SOUTHERN STATES WHO HAD MANAGED THE POPULATION CONTROL IN A MUCH BETTER WAY. IF PUSHED THROUGH THE OVERPOPULATD NORTHERN STATES WOULD CORNER MORE LOK SABHA SEATS IN THEIR FAST INCREASING POPULATIONS AFFECTING THE COUNTRY AS A WHOLE AND PUTTING THE SOUTH IN ADVERSE PROPORTION AND IMBALANCE SHE HAD MADE A VALID POINT.
