Question

Why did India introduced reserved constitutency system

Answer 1

Reserved Constituencies :

• Constitution has a special system of reserved constituencies for the weaker sections.

• Constituencies are kept reserved for scheduled castes (84) and scheduled tribes. (47)

• At local and district level the reservation system is extended to other weaker sections like women and OBC.

The Constituent Assembly thought that the Weaker sections of the society, like the poor people, dalits, OBCs etc. might not get a chance to win the election. This will mean that a major voice of the community is being denied. Thus, the Constituent Assembly decided to form Reserved Constituencies for the weaker sections of the society.
