(2) Every order made under sub-section (1) shall be laid, as soon as may be after it is made, before each House of Parliament. STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS The Government has received multiple representations from various sources, with a request to direct the initiation of the process to identify and determine the seats to provide for reservation to the Scheduled Tribes community in the Legislative Assembly of the State of Goa, as the same is not presently available to them. Since, the exercise of delimitation was initiated in the year 2002, the population of the Schedules Tribes in the State of Goa was recorded at that time in the census figures of the year 2001 as only 566, whereas the total population of the State of Goa was more than thirteen lakhs, the Scheduled Tribes communities of Goa, were not able to avail the benefit of reservations of seats as per the Constitution for their communities in the Legislative Assembly. 2. Subsequently, three new communities, namely, Kunbi, Gawda and Velip were included in the List of Scheduled Tribes of the State of Goa vide the Constitution (Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes Orders) Amendment Act, 2003 which increased the number of Scheduled Tribes population in the State considerably. Thus, a peculiar situation has arisen in the State, wherein the population of the Scheduled Tribes in the State vis-à-vis the population of Scheduled Castes is considerably higher (as per the Primary Census Abstract, 2011 for the State of Goa, the Total Population was 14,58,545; the population of Scheduled Castes was 25,449 and the population of Scheduled Tribes was 1,49,275) but no seats are reserved for Scheduled Tribes and they are unable to avail the constitutional benefit of reservation afforded to them by article 332. 3. Further, there is no provision in the Representation of the People Act, 1950 or in the Representation of the People Act, 1951, or in the Delimitation Act, 2002, enabling the Election Commission to carry out further delimitation of constituencies or to determine constituencies for the Scheduled Castes or the Scheduled Tribes in the States/Union territories where the delimitation exercise was carried out by the Delimitation Commission constituted under the Delimitation Act, 2002 and in terms of the provisions of the Constitution on the basis of 2001 census. 4. The Delimitation Commission has since ceased to exist after completion of its assigned task in the year 2008. Under articles 82 and 170 of the Constitution, further delimitation stands frozen until the figures for the first census taken after the year 2026 have been published. Therefore, no readjustment of seats can be undertaken to provide the reservation of seats for the Scheduled Tribes in the State of Goa where the population of the Scheduled Tribes has increased considerably as per 2011 census vis-à-vis 2001 census figures. 5. Therefore, it is imperative to enact a law to provide for enabling provisions empowering the Election Commission of India to make amendments in the Delimitation of Parliamentary and Assembly Constituencies Order, 2008 and readjust the seats in the Legislative Assembly of the State of Goa for the Scheduled Tribes of the State. 6. In view of the above, it has been decided to introduce in Parliament a Bill for enabling reservation of seats in accordance with article 332 of the Constitution for effective democratic participation of members of Scheduled Tribes and to provide for the readjustment of seats in the Legislative Assembly of the State of Goa, in so far as such readjustment is necessitated by inclusion of certain communities in the list of the Scheduled Tribes in the State of Goa and for matters connected therewith or incidental thereto. 7. The Bill seeks to achieve the above objectives. NEW DELHI; The 29th July, 2024. ARJUN RAM MEGHWAL. FINANCIAL MEMORANDUM The Bill, if enacted, does not involve any expenditure either recurring or non-recurring from and out of the consolidated fund of India. MEMORANDUM REGARDING DELEGATED LEGISLATION Sub-clause (1) of clause 4 of the Bill confers powers upon the Election Commission to make necessary amendments it in the Delimitation Order having regard to the relevant provisions of the Constitution, the Delimitation Act and the provisions of this Bill. 2. Sub-clause (1) of clause 7 of the Bill confers powers upon the Election Commission to make, by notification, correction of printing mistake or any error in the Delimitation Order and also to make necessary amendments therein, pursuant to any change in boundaries and name of any district or territorial division. 3. Sub-clause (1) of clause 8 of the Bill confers powers upon the Central Government to issue orders to remove any difficulty which may arise to give effect to the provisions of the proposed enactment within a period of two years. 4. The notification issued by the Election Commission shall be laid, as soon as, it is issued, before each House of Parliament and before the Legislative Assembly of the State. The order made by the Central Government shall be laid, as soon as, it is issued, before each House of Parliament. 5. The matters in respect of which the notification may be issued or the order may be made are matters of procedure and administrative detail. The delegation of legislative power is, therefore, of a normal character.
