Ramanathapuram: Chief minister MK Stalin on Sunday alleged betrayal of South India by the BJP-led Union government and claimed it attempted to lower representation for Tamil Nadu in Parliament by showing the “women’s reservation” as a reason. He alleged the Centre was attempting to penalise states, including Tamil Nadu, that successfully implemented population control programmes. Addressing an election rally at Paramakudi, Stalin said all democratic forces in the country are all set to oppose this proposal.
