In a reserved constituency, all eligible voters vote but the candidate belongs to the reserved category. What is the correct reason?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: To ensure representation of a reserved category while keeping the general voting right

Correct answer: B, reservation is intended to ensure representation of specified disadvantaged categories while preserving the general voting right of eligible voters. The distinction is important: a reserved constituency restricts eligibility to contest the seat for the prescribed category; it does not normally restrict voting to members of that category. The reasoning is: all eligible voters in the constituency remain voters; candidates must satisfy the reservation condition; the electorate then chooses among the eligible candidates. A is wrong because the purpose is not to divide voters or remove their common voting right. C is wrong because voting continues. D is wrong because the seat is not abolished; it remains an elected seat. Memory cue: reservation changes who may contest, not who may vote.
