J&K Delimitation draft finalised | Explainer in 5 points
The Jammu and Kashmir Delimitation Commission has released its draft report and sought objections and suggestions from the public and residents of the union territory before March 21, after which it will be considered by the panel in open sittings on March 28 and 29.
What is delimitation
Delimitation is the act of redrawing boundaries of an Assembly or Lok Sabha seat to represent changes in population over time. The objective is to redraw boundaries based on census data so the population of all seats, as far as practicable, be the same throughout the state. It is a key step in the move to hold elections in the union territory, which could then be followed by restoration of statehood.
Who is heading the commission
The panel that redraws constituencies in Jammu and Kashmir has been given an extension till May 6 to complete the exercise of redrawing Assembly constituencies in the state. The panel was originally constituted in 2020 but was given a 12-month extension last year. Headed by retired Supreme Court judge Justice Ranjana Prakash Desai, it has chief election commissioner Sushil Chandra as its chairman.
Seven new constituencies proposed
The proposal for the creation of six new constituencies in Jammu and Kashmir and one in the Kashmir Valley has been published. It also proposes the carving out of seven scheduled caste and nine scheduled tribe constituencies in the region.
What will change if the proposal is cleared
The number of seats in the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly is to be increased from 83 to 90, with 43 in Jammu region and 47 in Kashmir; 24 seats will be kept aside (and vacant) for Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. The number of Lok Sabha seats have been kept five and no seat has been reserved for scheduled castes or tribes.
Parties opposing the draft
The Farooq and Omar Abdullah-led National Conference had earlier distanced itself from the proceedings but rejoined late last year. The Congress has strongly objected to the final draft of the legislation, saying it ‘totally ignores ground realities’ and is ‘dissection not delimitation’.

After nearly a month apart, Gurucharan Singh, the missing person from Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, returns home. He has “left worldly life.”
After going missing on April 22 of this year, actor Gurucharan Singh made his way back home on Friday. The Delhi Police were cited in an India Today article stating that Gurucharan Singh “was on a religious journey.” For his role as Roshan Singh Sodhi in Taarak Mehta ka Ulta Chashma, Gurucharan Singh is widely renowned.
What Gurucharan revealed to the police after coming back home
According to the report, Gurucharan Singh informed the police officers that he was on a religious trip and had left his worldly life behind during the interview. The actor has visited gurudwaras in a number of towns recently, including Amritsar and Ludhiana. But later on, he felt he ought to go back home.
The article claims that over the course of their inquiry, the police also discovered that Gurucharan Singh belonged to a group that meditates. He even expressed interest in taking a meditation trip to the Himalayas. A abduction complaint had been filed by the Delhi Police, and an investigation was in progress to locate him.
Concerning Gurucharan Singh
It was believed that Gurucharan Singh, who was in Delhi visiting his parents, would head back to Mumbai. His disappearance from April 22 was reported to the authorities by his family in a complaint.
Concerning Gurucharan Singh’s financial circumstances
Gurucharan Singh reportedly maintained many bank accounts for financial transactions and used credit cards often. It was also discovered by the police that he had over ten bank accounts. According to a report in the Free Press Journal, he took out ₹14,00 from an ATM. He pulled out cash and paid off one credit card with another using credit cards.
Hargit Singh, the father of Gurucharan Singh, recently claimed that he was ignorant of his son’s precarious financial situation. Hargit had stated in an interview with Bombay Times, “I was unaware of my son’s financial circumstances. He never discussed it with me. Thus, I am ignorant of everything.”
