Explanation:

In India, a number of political positions and university posts are held for specific groups of the population, including Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes, and women in some cases.

There are reserved constituencies in both Parliamentary and State Assembly elections. Scheduled Castes ,popularly abbreviated as SC and Scheduled Tribes ,popularly known as ST are Castes and Tribes included in the schedules published by Govt to indicate these castes' and tribes' backward status. All voters incuding Non SC ,Non ST community voters have right to vote for these candidates belonging to SC or ST candidate if contesting from their constituency.25% of Indian population belongs to SC ST communities. Same number of seats ie 25% are reserved for them in the Parliament. In each State that number will depend on the percentage of population and percentage of SC ST amongst them. In local body Electionsmlike Municipal polls in addition to SC ST , Other Backward Class candidates also have reserved seats. The constituencies are alloted by lottery system . 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.

In the earlier history of India under British rule, a separate electorate meant that not only were the seats reserved for a specific group, but voting for the reserved constituency was allowed for only members of that specific community. For example, only Muslims could vote for Muslim candidates in Muslim reserved constituencies.

The Women's Reservation Bill proposed in 2008 reserves 33% of all seats in Lok Sabha and all State Legislative assemblies for women. The Rajya Sabha passed the bill on 9 March 2010.
