What is the purpose of a reserved constituency?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: To give representation to weaker sections

Correct answer: A, to give representation to weaker sections. Democracy is stronger when different social groups can participate in decision-making and find a voice in legislatures. Reserved constituencies are one method of improving the political representation of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes, which have historically faced social and economic disadvantages and inadequate representation. The reservation concerns who may contest the reserved seat; eligible voters in the constituency still choose among the candidates through voting. B is wrong because polling booths remain necessary and are not closed because a seat is reserved. C is wrong because the voter list continues to be used and must remain available. D is wrong because reservation does not postpone an election; it changes the eligibility for candidates in that constituency. Memory cue: reservation opens the door to representation; it does not shut the election.
