Question
Write a short note.
Reorganising the constituencies
Solution
- Reorganisation of the constituencies is the responsibility of the delimitation committee of the Election Commission.
- The constituencies are reorganized from time to time on the basis of population density of an area, as tabulated in the decennial census reports.
- Uttar Pradesh is the most densely populated state of India and hence has the largest number of seats to Loksabha in the general election, each seat representing a constituency.
- At present, there are 543 constituencies that are due for a reorganisation in 2021 on the basis of the next Census report.
