In short

Kiren Rijiju said he wrote three letters to Congress leaders this year on March 16, March 26 and April 12. He also said he met Mallikarjun Kharge and Rahul Gandhi to ask for support for the delimitation bill.

The point is political support for the bill, but the reporting does not say if Congress agreed. It also does not say when the bill will move next.

What the reporting says

Kiren Rijiju said he wrote three letters to Congress leaders on delimitation this year, on March 16, March 26 and April 12, and also met Mallikarjun Kharge and Rahul Gandhi to seek support for the bill. The reporting does not give their responses or state any decision on the bill. The immediate consequence is still unknown, including whether the outreach will move the legislation forward.

Why it matters

Kiren Rijiju said he reached out several times on the delimitation bill, including three letters dated March 16, March 26 and April 12, and meetings with Mallikarjun Kharge and Rahul Gandhi. The story is about political consultation and support-seeking, not a final outcome. The reporting does not state the Congress response, the bill's status, or any vote or schedule.
