reserved constituensies
Answers
Answer:
The constitution makers made the provision for reserved constituencies for members of the scheduled castes and scheduled tribes in India because : The economically weaker section of the society may not have the required resources, education and contacts to contest and win elections against others.
Answer:
There are reserved constituencies in both Parliamentary and State Assembly elections. General category candidates are not eligible to contest in these constituencies. All voters are rights to vote for one candidate from their respective cast or tribe. In the case of municipal and other Local 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 constituencies in which seats are reserved for Scheduled Castes and Tribes based on the size of their population.
