The Tamil Nadu government has been vocal about its opposition to any delimitation process that reduces the state's representation in Parliament due to population control efforts.

The proposed meeting with the Prime Minister is aimed at ensuring that Tamil Nadu's concerns are addressed in any future changes to parliamentary seat allocations.

Stalin had called a meeting of the Joint Action Committee (JAC) on 22 March to discuss the delimitation issue. Leaders from various states gathered in Chennai to express their concerns over the proposed exercise. The committee passed a resolution on the delimitation issue, expressing concern over the "lack of transparency and clarity" on the part of the central government.

The JAC, led by Stalin, unanimously demanded greater transparency from the central government regarding any delimitation exercise and called for extending the freeze on parliamentary constituencies based on the 1971 census population for another 25 years. The committee urged the central government "not to punish" states that have effectively implemented the population control programme. Further, they resolved that political parties from various states represented at the meeting will move appropriate assembly resolutions on the delimitation issue.

The resolution said, "The political parties from various states participating in the meeting shall initiate efforts to bring appropriate Legislative Assembly resolutions in their respective states on the issue and communicate it to the Central Government. The JAC shall also make necessary efforts to disseminate information about the history and context of previous delimitation exercises and the consequences of the proposed delimitation among the citizens of their respective states through a coordinated public opinion mobilisation strategy."

Additionally, the JAC resolved that the MPs shall oppose any attempt by the Central Government to carry out any delimitation exercise contrary to the principles mentioned above. It added, "The Core Committee of MPs shall submit a joint representation on the above lines to the Hon'ble Prime Minister of India during the current Parliamentary Session." MK Stalin said the next meeting on delimitation of constituencies will be held in Hyderabad, Telangana.
