Abstract

The delimitation process of constituencies in India is set to roll after the Census of 2031. Proportional representation is being debated upon in the political corridors as non-justifiable. As states with low fertility rates have begun questioning if proportional representation can bear them the fruits financially and in terms of number of seats in Lok Sabha; states who were unsuccessful in curbing birth rates seem to be awarded with undue gain. it has become imperative to formulate a different methodology to reassign the number of seats to the states in the Lok Sabha.
