You were earlier asserting that India's constitution has geography and population based allocation of seats. This is completely untrue. I dont know where you get such ideas from.
All your questions will be answered here:
Election Commission of India
Q 2. What is the main basis for allocation of seats to various States in the Lok Sabha?
Ans. Population of the State
Population is the basis of allocation of seats of the Lok Sabha. As far as possible, every State gets representation in the Lok Sabha in proportion to its population as per census figures.
Which are the States having the minimum number of seats in Lok Sabha?
Ans. The following States and Union Territories have one seat each in the Lok Sabha
Mizoram
Nagaland
Sikkim
Andaman and Nicobar Islands
Chandigarh
Dadra and Nagar Haveli
Daman and Diu
Lakshadweep
Pondicherry
Article 82 of the constitution states that:
Readjustment after each census Upon the completion of each census, the allocation of seats in the House of the People to the States and the division of each State into territorial constituencies shall be readjusted by such authority and in such manner as Parliament may by law determine
Basically after each census, the seats will be adjusted depending on the population of areas.
WRT questions you had posted about TN having more seats than MP, here is the answer:
The above described the system that is normally followed, however there were some complications:
This Delimitation Commission demarcates the boundaries of the Parliamentary Constituencies as per provisions of the Delimitation Act. The present delimitation of constituencies has been done on the basis of 2001 census figures under the provisions of Delimitation Act, 2002. The Constitution of India was specifically amended in 2002 (
84th amend) not to have delimitation of constituencies till the first census after 2026. Thus, the present Constituencies carved out on the basis of 2001 census shall continue to be in operation till the first census after 2026.
Essentially, some states have been very successful in implementing family planning, education etc that has reduced population growth, while others have not been so successful. So to prevent punishment of these states, for successfully implementing policies, there is a temporary freeze on readjustment of seats, but it will be looked at again in 2026 by which time, hopefully the fertility rates of the other states have come down a bit as well. This is what has resulted in a few discrepancies but as shown in an earlier post, these are not that large discrepancies.
It definitely is not based off something unclear like geography!
