New Delhi, Oct 9 (TIWN) In what can stir a new North-vs-South debate, Congress leader from Uttar Pradesh Jitin Prasada has said that the Lok Sabha was getting more representation from South India than North India because of the prevailing distribution of seats.
"There is disparity (in terms of seat distribution) towards the North, particularly Uttar Pradesh," Prasada said.
He said in North India, an MP is elected from a constituency which has population of 25 lakh but in many states, a constituency can have a population of 10 lakh.
