The Union Minister of State for Home’s statement in the Lok Sabha came in reply to a question of Tamil Nadu MPs TR Paarivendhar and S Ramalingam whether the Central government has any proposal to bifurcate any State in the country, including Tamil Nadu.
”Demands and representations are received from time to time from various individuals and organisations for the creation of new States. The creation of a new State has wide ramifications and a direct bearing on the federal polity of our country. Government moves on the matter of the formation of new States after taking into consideration all relevant factors. Presently no such proposal is under consideration,” Rai said.
