UP's split inevitable due to size, population: Jairam Ramesh
Ex-Union Minister Jairam Ramesh has said Uttar Pradesh's division would be "inevitable" due to its size and population. Ramesh added that UP, with a population of 400 million after a few years, "will become ungovernable, even with landslide mandates for the political party in power". With 80 MPs, UP has the largest number of seats in Lok Sabha.
