Reserved constituencies are created for whose representation?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: For Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes

Answer: C. Reserved constituencies are intended to ensure representation for historically disadvantaged communities identified by the Constitution and election laws. In the context of this question, seats are reserved for candidates belonging to the Scheduled Castes (SC) or Scheduled Tribes (ST), according to the category of the particular seat. All voters of the constituency vote, but eligibility to contest that reserved seat is limited to the specified category. C is correct. A is wrong because reservation is not for wealthy people. B is wrong because foreign citizens are not the group meant here and cannot generally vote or contest Indian elections as citizens. D is wrong because being a sportsperson does not create a reserved constituency. Memory cue: SC/ST reservation is meant to improve political representation, not to provide a privilege based on wealth or profession.
