Detailed Solution

Our nation has a district-based system of representation. For elections, the nation is split up into many regions. A constituency is a collection of local citizens in a given area. The composition of these constituencies is influenced by population. Constituencies for elections are these areas. Residents of a region cast ballots to choose one representative. The country is divided into 543 seats for the Lok Sabha elections. A Member of Parliament, or MP, is the title given to the representative chosen from each constituency.
