of 550 elected members in the Lower House of Parliament. All of them are people&#8217;s representatives, and they are chosen by the people through an unbiased electoral process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Until the 1970s, the common practice was to redraw constituencies based on the recent population, keeping the total number of members constant. The main idea behind this was to have a proper representation of voters. The concept of delimitation was introduced, which ensures that there are roughly an equal number of electors in each constituency. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"_What_is_Delimitation\"><\/span><strong>&nbsp;What\nis Delimitation?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In a literal sense, delimitation is the act or process of fixing the limits or boundaries of the territorial constituencies in the Country. It is assigned to a high power authority known as the Delimitation Commission or Boundary Commission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This Commission is one of the most powerful and independent bodies, and one cannot question the order in the Court of Law. The orders are put in front of Lok Sabha and the State Legislative Assemblies. Neither Parliament nor the assembly can change the recommendations, and the report is brought before the President. After the approval of the President, an official notification will make the changes permanent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These orders shall\ncome into force on a date which is specified by the President of India. The\ncopies of the orders are laid before the House of the People and the State\nLegislative Assembly concerned, and no modifications are permissible by them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Delimitation_Commission_in_India\"><\/span><strong>Delimitation Commission in India<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Indian government establishes the Delimitation Commission under <a href=\"http:\/\/legislative.gov.in\/sites\/default\/files\/09_Delimitation%20act%2C%202002.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">The Delimitation Act<\/a>.&nbsp; The Commission has been constituted 4 times in India, in 1952, 1963, 1973 and 2002.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This high power\nbody is given the task of redrawing the boundaries of various assemblies and\nLok Sabha constituencies based on the recent census.
