If constituency boundary is completely inconsistent with natural communities and administrative convenience what difficulty may arise?

Representation and election management may become difficult

Answer: A, representation and election management may become difficult. Constituency boundaries should create workable areas in which people can be represented and elections can be administered. If a boundary cuts across natural communities in an impractical way, people with shared local concerns may be separated, while unrelated areas may be joined. Administration may also face difficulty in locating voters, organising polling arrangements, and connecting local problems with the appropriate representative. B is wrong because a boundary does not change a voter's age. C is wrong because counting is not affected through any colour change. D is wrong because a candidate's name does not disappear merely because a boundary is poorly designed. The issue is rational organisation for fair representation and practical administration. Memory cue: sensible boundaries help both people choose representation and officials manage elections.
