Singh accused the ruling PDP-BJP coalition for neglecting taking up of Jammu-related issues.
Singh said that delimitation of constituencies which forms a part of the coalition's Common Minimum Programme deserves priority consideration with early constitution of the delimitation commission.
Emphasising on the urgency to initiate the delimitation process, Singh said that geographical area, topography, number of voters, nature of terrain, inaccessibility and poor communication facilities were the factors which weigh heavily in favour of the Jammu region and entitle it to a higher number of Assembly constituencies.
