'Avoid cloak-and-dagger tactics': Derek O'Brien writes to PM Modi on delimitation bill, seeks all-party meet

Trinamool Congress leader Derek O'Brien urged Prime Minister Modi to convene an all-party meeting. He expressed concerns over proposed delimitation legislation and the Foreign Contribution Amendment bill. O'Brien described these measures as 'draconian' and 'cowboy legislation' in his letter. The opposition fears the delimitation exercise could reduce southern states' parliamentary representation. The Foreign Contribution Amendment bill may tighten government oversight of charitable organizations.
