Why do reserved constituencies not end the general voting right?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because reservation is linked to candidate eligibility, not to voters

The correct answer is A. In a reserved constituency, reservation generally concerns who may contest the seat, not which eligible citizens may vote. The constituency still has an electoral roll, and all eligible voters enrolled there can vote according to the election rules. The purpose is to improve the representation of groups that have historically faced social disadvantage, while retaining the general voting participation of citizens in that constituency. B is wrong because voting does take place on a reserved seat. C is wrong because officials do not replace ordinary eligible voters. D is wrong because a voter list is still necessary and is prepared for the constituency. Keep the two ideas separate: reservation limits the eligible candidate category, whereas the voter list determines eligible voters. Memory cue: “reserved candidate, not reserved voters.”
