The Delimitation Commission, mandated to redraw Assembly constituencies in J&K, on Friday circulated a revised draft report to its associate members incorporating some changes suggested by them.

Five Lok Sabha members —Farooq Abdullah, Mohammad Akbar Lone and Hasnain Masoodi of the National Conference and Jugal Kishore Sharma and Jitendra Singh of the BJP — are the panel’s associate members.

The MPs had urged the panel to “redraw” some seats. Their suggestions regarding Habba Kadal seat in Srinagar and Suchetgarh seat in Jammu have been accepted.
