General KnowledgeIndian Polity and Governance
- AThe superintendence, direction and control of elections are vested in the Election Commission of India.
- BThere is one general electoral roll for every territorial constituency.
- CThe Parliament has the power to make laws relating to the delimitation of constituencies.
- DThe Supreme Court of India has the authority to scrutinize the validity of a law relating to delimitation of constituencies.
Explanation
The ECI's superintendence, direction, and control of elections (Article 324), the single general electoral roll for every constituency (Article 325), and Parliament's power to make laws on delimitation (Article 327) are all correct. But Article 329(a) bars courts from questioning the validity of any law relating to the delimitation of constituencies — so statement D is not correct.
