Question

how the electoral constituencies are divided

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Allocation of Lok sabha Seats for Indian states is based on People representative Act, so put it in a simple way, it is fully depends on population...

Lets see, how each state got the current number of seat allotted to them..

As per 2011 census, Tamil nadu, with the population of 7.2Cr people, have 39 Lok Sabha seats, but Rajasthan with the population of 7cr, have only 25 Lok sabha seats, Madhya Pradesh with the population of 7.3Cr have only 29 Lok Sabha seats.. so why the allotment was not reflecting the population..?

Lets Answer the above question part by part

Simple rule to allocate seats were

1. every state or UT should get at-least one lok sabha representative,

2. No parliamentary constituency will lie on two states

Before 1976, During every General election, Delimitation committee decides on number of lok sabha seats to be allotted to every states based on population of the states with respect to latest available census of india

So we got a census on 1951, 1961 and 1971, lets see what was the number of constituency allotted for each states

Answer 2

For the purpose of constituting the Lok Sabha , the whole country has been divided into 543 Parliamentary Constituencies , each one of which elects one member. The members of the Lok Sabha are elected directly by the eligible voters.
