Delimitation Commission

The Delimitation Commission is a special body set up in India to redraw the boundaries of electoral constituencies, which are the areas represented by elected officials. This process helps ensure each area has fair and equal representation based on population changes, especially after a census. The commission's task is to create a balanced and logical division of regions for elections, maintaining the integrity of the democratic process. It operates independently and its decisions are final, updating constituency boundaries to reflect demographic shifts and improve electoral fairness.
