Question

Reserved constituencies’ in Assemblies and the Parliament of a country is an example of which kind of power sharing?

Answer 1

Answer:

There are reserved constituencies in both Parliamentary and State Assembly elections. Candidates of General category are not eligible to contest from these constituencies. All voters are to vote for one of the candidates (from Scheduled Castes or Schedule Tribes). In case of Municipal elections and other Local Bodies elections, the constituencies are known as Wards. Thus, there may be as many Wards or Constituencies as the number of elected seats in the elected body. Reserved constituencies are those constituencies in which seats are reserved for SCs and STs on the basis of their population.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

Reserved constituencies:

• Reserved Constituency This is a constituency that is specifically reserved for the weakest sections of society, i.e. Scheduled Castes (SCs) and Scheduled Tribes (STs) System Requirement Weaker communities that get reservation in elections have faced prejudice for millennia. As a result, if their representatives had not been elected, our Parliament and State Legislative Assemblies would have been devoid of the voice of a sizable segment of our community.
• This system of Reserved Constituencies (84 seats in Lok Sabha for Scheduled Castes and 47 seats for Scheduled Tribes) transforms our democracy into a true representative democracy.
• The ideals emphasised by our Constitution authors in developing this policy are their desire to bring everyone in society on the same level.
• As a result, they pushed for the concept of 'equality for all.'

The allocation of authority among government institutions such as the legislative, executive, and judiciary is referred to as power sharing. Power sharing contributes to political order stability. Power may even be shared at several levels in power-sharing, such as union, state, and local.
