NEW DELHI: Even the PM’s strategy to get an interview with political parties out of J&K on Thursday might have begun speculation about important concessions into the Valley but it could be still a while before their anticipated needs – holding of surveys to put in an elected administration and recovery of statehood – could be fulfilled.
Forthe government heads of the 20 districts at UT might take another one or 2 weeks to send complete information sought from the Delimitation Commission concerning the bodily attributes, demographic routine and administrative struggles of their individual districts.
Resources said this info is imperative to the commission because the upgraded nomadic headcount of those districts will be needed for delineating’booked’ constituencies.

Giving an chance to J&K’s parties to vent their issues has been viewed as an outreach from the Centre to have all stakeholders into carrying the democratic process ahead.
The Delimitation Commission is very likely to maintain an electronic meeting with all district deputy commissioners at the coming days to talk about the information shared with these about 18 parameters, though sources stated that the DCs are most likely to find additional time to publish complete information.
Resources told TOI that another meeting with partner members – MPs of six LS constituencies – will be very likely to be convened from the commission in close future.
When the draft delimitation map is prepared, it’ll be put in public domain such as objections.
Public hearings will follow until the delimitation award is finalised.
Afterward, the Election Commission will probably have to do a special summary revision of electoral rolls out in J&K before surveys could be scheduled.
