I should like to bring to your notice that I had suggested during t he course of the discussion that either Makhajan (E.C.J or Khadwai (E.C.) be removed from Sangameshwar assembly constituency. I had an im- pression that this was agreed to as there was no opposition. I should therefore like to request you to make this small change.

I have already written to you my view regarding the removal of E.C. Kadwai or E.C. Makhajan from Sangameshwar, it m ay be treated as a dissenting note.

I should also write to consider the enclosed note. If you cannot agree to t he proposal I shall be thankful if you would kindly include it for further consideration by the Commission.

It is well-known fact that Chanda District is the main District in Vagpur Division so far as S.T. Population is concerned. Gadhchiroli and Sironcha Tals. have already been declared by the President as Scheduled areas for the S.T. population. According to the' proposals of the Com- mission, the District gets only one S.T. seat despite the fact that the con- centration of the S.T. population is very high in this District. In order, therefore, to give more representation to the S.T. pop. in this District. I suggest the rearrangement of the two con'cies—145—A'rmori and 146— Dhanoru. While suggesting the rearrangement, I have not ignored the problems of communications and contiguity. The new con'cies would be as follows: —

145—Armori—Etapalli Block and Permfli Kamlapur E.D. in Aheri Block in Sironcha Tah.: Gadhchiroli block, Wadadh'a E.C. of Wairagad—Bhakronli E.D. and Armori—Thanegaon E.C. in Armori block in Gadhchiroli Tal.

146—Dhanoru—Dhanoru and Kurkheda Blocks, Visora—Kurul E.D., Desaiganj Municipality and Wairagad E.C. of Wairagad— Bhakrondi E.D. in Armori Block in Gadhchiroli tal.

The percentage of S.T. pop. in 145—Armori comes to 43.67 and that of 146—Dhanora to 53.82. I suggest that instead of reserving 110—Melghat as S.T. seat, the new 145—Armori should be -reserved as S.T. seat. Melghat was already a general seat last time and therefore there would not be any objection to its continuance so.

While making this suggestion I am not unmindful of the fact that Kelapur in Yeotmal District is proposed to be retained as S.T. seat even though it has lower percentage than 110—Melghat'. My reason for this proposal is that even though there is higher concentration of S.T. pop. in Melghat, the total pop. in Amraofi" District is far less than that in Yeot- mal District and therefore the Yeotmal District should not be deprived of a S.T. seat simply on ground that the S.T. population is scattered.

I also suggest that in order to give more weight "fo~ the presence of S.T. pop. in 145—Armori the Constituency should be named as Etapalli where the S.T. pop, is dense.

The two Parliamentary Constituencies—44—Hatkanangle and 45— Kolhapur need be regrouped from the point of view of contiguity and communications, I suggest that 266 Kolhapur and 267 Karwir Assembly Constituencies should be transferred to the other Parliamentary Consti- tuency in place of 260 Shirol and 261 Hatkanangle on the following grounds: —

Kagal Taluka is contiguous to Hatkanangle taluka and there are regular S.T, Bus services between several important places in those two talukas. The distance between them is hardly about"13 to 15 miles. The people of these talukas are also more socially connected to each other.

Shahuwadi, Danhala and Radhangari Assembly Constituencies of 44 Hatkanangle Parliamentary Constituency contain more extensive hilly tracks and more scattered and thinner population and contain nearly 350 villages with less than 1,000 population each. There is similar hilly track in Sawantwadi, Chandgad and Gadhinglaj Constituencies of 45—Kolhapur Parliamentary Constituency but the number of villages with less than 1,000 population in this area is about 275. Thus the benefit of compact area of Kolhapur and Karwir Constituencies goes to the area having less extensive hilly tract, which in fact should go to the first named area.

Apart from this, the Kagal Constituency has been separated from the Karwir and Kolhapur Constituencies because the Girgaon E.D. of Karwir Taluka goes to Vadgaon Constituency in 44—Hatkanangale Parliamentary Constituency. Roads to Kagal from Kolhapur go through this Girgaon E.D. and hence there is now no direct communication between Kagal on one side and Kolhapur and Karwir Constituencies on the other side.

Thus from the points of view of compactness, convenience, fairness, and contiguity, Kolhapur and Karwir Constituencies should be joined to the Shahuwadi, Panhala, Radhanagari and Vadgaon Constituencies while Shirol and Hatkanangle Constituencies should be joined to Kagal, Gadhinglaj, Chandgad and Sawantwadi Constituencies.

I am submitting herewith my note of dissent with regard to the pro- posals for the delimitation of constituencies in Maharashtra State.

1. Reserved seat for Scheduled caste in Assembly Constituency No. 64, should be placed in Assembly Constituency No. 82, Chalisgaon. Chalis- gaon has higher percentage of scheduled caste population than Niphad. Moreover, Nasik district has one Parliamentary and three Assembly con- stituencies reserved for Scheduled tribes. There is no reserved seat in Jalagaon district,

2. In Sholapur district, there is higher percentage of scheduled caste population. I feel that there should be one more scheduled caste reserved seat in Assembly Constituency No. 206 Mohal. The Mohol Constituency should consist of Mohol Taluka and Modnimb E.C. from Modha Taluka instead of the present proposal and constituency No, 208, should be of Madha Taluka Excluding Modhimbre E.C. My proposal would make the constituencies more contiguous and there would be less of disturbance for a taluka as unit. This would facilitate to give one more seat for scheduled caste-

3. Parliamentary Constituency No. 38, should be regrouped as follows: Assembly constituency No. 240 Purandhar and 241 Bhor should go to Parliamentary constituency No. 36 Khed and assembly constituency No. 236 Sirur and No. 237 Dhond should be attached to Parliamentary constituency No. 38 Baramati. Geographically and from communication points of view and even from the point of contiguity I feel that these changes proposed by me is a necessity and the proposals by the Commission are inconvenient and are not contiguous.

4. In Parliamentary constituency No. 9 Kalyan Assembly Constituency No. 228 should be removed and it should be attached to Parliamentary Constituency No. 3 and Constituency No. 19 Panavel from Parliamentary constituency No. 3, Kulaba should be attached to Parliamentary Constitu- ency No. 8. Bombay North and Assembly Constituency No. 50 should be re- moved from Parliamentary Constituency No, 8 and it should be attached to Parliamentary Constituency No. 9 Kalyan. These changes may help to have the Constituencies to be more contiguous. Moral is more conve- nient and easy for Communication to Kulaba than Kalyan.

5- In Parliamentary Constituency No. 22, Bhandara. Assembly Consti- tuency No. 133 Tirora, No. 134 Gondia, No. 135 Amgaon, should be attach- ed to Parliamentary Constituency No. 23 Chimur and from Parliamentary Constituency No. 23 Chimur Assembly constituency No. 139 Adyal, 140 Bhampuri 141 Chimur 145 Armor! should be attached to Parliamentary constituency No. 22 Bhandara. These changes are suggested in con- sonance with the old constituencies on 1962 and also from administrative convenience homogenuity and communication points'of view.

6. In Parliamentary Constituency No. 39, Sholapur, Assembly Consti- tuency No. 205 Mangalvedha should be taken out and attached to Parlia- mentary constituency No. 40 Pandharpur and from Parliamentary Con- stituency No. 40 Assembly Constituency No. 207 Barshi should be taken out and should be attached to parliamentary Constituency No. 39 Shola- pur. This change is suggested from the point of view of contiguity and necessary communications.

7. I have made above suggestions as my dissenting note to the propo- sals sent to me by the Commission for publication along with the propo- sals.

I am placing dissenting proposal as under: —

As regards the Reservation of seats for S.C. proposed by the Delimita- tion Commission it is observed that out of the six seats allotted to Poona division one each has been proposed for allotment to each o£ the Districts in the Division.

It may be seen that while in Sholapur and Kolhapur Districts four and- two talukas each with more than 14¹00 p.c. Scheduled Caste population, each, the other four Districts do not have a single taluka with such a high percentage of Scheduled Caste population.

The principle of distribution of these seats on equal basis to all the districts is therefore not correct, Sholapur and Kolhapur districts should therefore have more seats-

It would perhaps be fair to allot two more seats to Sholapur District and one more to Kolhapur District.

In this connection it may be pointed out that Sangli is a comparatively small district with the total of only seven assembly constituencies. The- percentage of S.C. population in this district is also very low. The Re- serve seat need not therefore be allotted to this district.

In Sholapur District for instance, the number of seats has been increas- ed from 10 to 13 this time and hence an increase in the number of reserv- ed seats 19 warranted.

In accordance to subsection (c) of section 9 of Delimitation of Con- stituencies Act the seats reserved for the S,Cs. are to be distributed in different parts of the States located in these areas where the proportion of their population to the total is comparatively large.

It is therefore, proper that Sholapur and Kolhapur should have more S.Cs, seats. Sangli and Satara and Poona need not have any S.C. seats.

As regards the Reservation of seats for Scheduled Castes proposed by the Delimitation. Commission, it is observed that out of the six seats allot- ed to Poona Division one each has been proposed for allotment to each of the Districts in the Division.

It may be seen that while in Sholapur and Kolhapur districts 4 and 2 talukas each with more than 14-00 per cent Scheduled Caste population each, the other 4 districts do not have a single taluka with such a high percentage of Scheduled Caste population.

The principle of distribution of these seats on equal basis to all the- Districts is therefore not correct, Sholapur and Kolhapur districts should, therefore, have more seats.

It would perhaps be fair to allot two more seats to Sholapur district and one more to Kolhapur district.

In this connection it may be pointed out that Sangli is a comparatively small district with the total of only 7 Assembly constituencies. The per- centage of Scheduled Caste population in this district is also very low- The Reserve seat need not therefore be allotted to this district.

In Sholapur district, for instance, the number of seats has been increas- ed from 10 to 13 this time and hence an increase in the number of reserv- ed seats is warranted.

In accordance to sub-section (c) of Section 9 of the Delimitation of Constituencies Act, the seats reserved for the Scheduled Castes are to be distributed in different parts of the States¹ located in these areas where the proportion of their population to the total is comparatively large.

It is, therefore, proper that Sholapur and Kolhapur should have more Scheduled Castes seats, Sangli and Satara and Poona need not have any Scheduled Caste seats.

I am submitting herewith dissenting proposals and request that the same may kindly be published in the Government Gazettes.

145. Armori and 146. Dhanora Constituencies.

It is a well-known fact that Chanda District is the main district in Nagpur Division so far as S.T. population is concerned. Gadhchiroli and Sironcha Tals. have already been declared by the President as scheduled areas for the ST. population. According to the proposals of the Com- mission, this district gets only one S.T. seat despite the fact that the con- centration of the S.T. population is very high in this district. In order therefore to give more representation to the S.T. population in this district I suggest the rearrangement of the two constituencies 145—Armori and 146—Dhanora. While suggesting the rearrangement, I have not ignored the problem of communications and contiguity. The new constituencies would be as follows: —

145. Armori.—Etapalli Block and Permili-Kamlapur E. D. in Aheri Block in Sironcha Tahsil; Gadhchiroli block and Wadadha E.C of Wairagad-Bhakrondi E.D. and Armori-Thanegoan E.D. in Armori block in Gadhchiroli Tal.

146. Dhanora.—Dhanora and Kurkheda Blocks, Visora-Kurul E.D. Desaiganj municipality and Wairagad E.C. of Wairagad- Bhakrondi E.D. in Armori block in Gadhchiroli tal.

The percentage of S.T. population in 145-Armori comes to 43-67 rnd that of 146-Dhanora to 53-82. I suggest that instead of reserving 110- Melghat as S.T. seat, the new 145-Armori should be reserved as S.T. seat. Melghat was already a general seat last time and therefore there would not be any objection to its continuance so-

While making this suggestion I am not unmindful of the fact that Kela- pur in Yeotmal district is proposed to be retained as S.T. seat even though it has lower percentage than 110-Melghat. My reason for this proposal is that even though there is higher concentration of S.T. pop. in Melghat, the total population in Amravati district is far less than that in Yeotmal dis- trict and therefore the Yeotmal district should not be deprived of a S.T. seat simply on the ground that the S.T. population is scattered.

*

•*•*

I also suggest that in order to give more weight to the presence of S.T. population in 145-Armori, the constituency should be named as Etapalli where the S.T. population is dense.

61. Deolali and 62. Nasik Constituencies.

By joining the Adgaon E.D. to the Nasik Municipality, this constituency i.e., 62. Nasik has become rather a heavy constituency- Since it is de- sirable to join as small a rural population to the urban population as possi- ble, I suggest that instead of joining Adgaon E.D. to Nasik Municipality, Satpure KC. of Girnare E.D. be joined and the rest ot the portion of Gir- nare E.D. be joined to 61. Deolali constituency. The proposed change will be within the maximum and minimum of population tor the constituencies.

82. Chalisgaon Assembly Constituency.

This constituency should be reserved for Scheduled Castes instead of 64. Niphad constituency on the ground that the percentage of Scheduled Castes is higher in this constituency (6-46) than that of Niphad (6-04). The principle of reserving seats for Scheduled Castes where the percent- age is higher has already been accepted by the Commission in the case of Slroncha constituency of Chanda district while distributing the S.C. seats in the Nagpur division and, therefore, there is no reason why it should not be followed in the case of Chalisgaon Constituency in Bombay Divi- sion also. Therefore the Scheduled Caste seat should go to Chalisgaon in Jalgaon District, which is next in percentage to the y3-Love-grove con- stituency in Greater Bombay.

44. and 45. Parliamentary Constituencies.

The two parliamentary constituencies 44-Hatkanangle and 45-Kolha- pur need be regrouped from the point of view of contiguity and communi- cations. I suggest that 266 Kolhapur and 267 Karwir assembly constituen- cies should be transferred to their other parliamentary constituency in place of 260 Shirol and 261 Hatkanangle on the following grounds: —

Kagal Taluka is contiguous to Hatkanangle taluka and there are regu- lar S.T. Bus services between several important places in those two talu- Jcas. The distance between them is hardly about 13 to 15 miles. The people of these talukas are also more socially connected to each other.

Shahuwadi, Panhala and Radhangari assembly constituencies of 44- fiatkanangle parliamentary constituency contain more extensive hilly tract andl more scattered and thiner population and contain nearly 350 villages with less than 1,000 population each. There is similar hilly tract in Sawantwadi. Chandgad and Gadhinglaj constituencies of 45-Kolhapur parliamentary constituency but the number of villages with less than 1,000 population in this area is about 275. Thus the benefit of compact area of Kolhapur and Karwir constituencies goes to the area having less hilly trac which in fact should go to the first named area.

Apart from this, the Kagal constituencies has been separated from the Karwir and Kolhapur constituencies because the Girgaon E.D. of Karwir taluka goes to Vadgaon constituency. Roads to Kagal from Kolhapur go through this Girgaon E.D. and hence there is now no direct communication between Kagal on one side and Kolhapur and Karwir constituencies on the other side.

Thus from the points of view of compactness, convenience, fairness, and contiguity, Kolhapur and Karwir constituencies should be joined to the

In regard to the proposals of the Aurangabad District, I regret, I cannot accept them. I enclose fresh proposals for forming constituencies in this District. As per these new proposals a taluka will be divided into two parts only. Vaijapur, Gangapur, Soegaon, Bhokardan, Kannad Taluka, Soegaon Mahal and Jafarabad Mahal will remain intact according to these fresh proposals. In these new proposals, old constituencies of the last general elections as far as possible are kept as they were. The changes are effected and parts of talukas adjoining to the constituencies are con- nected where it was absolutely necessary, taking into consideration the convenience of the people. The mode of communications and natural situation and other circumstances are also taken into consideration while joining some part of a taluka to the other part in forming a constituency.

172. Ambad.

As per Commission's proposals the Ambad taluka was divided into three parts, But as per my fresh proposals it has been divided into two parts only. The portion of the excess population has been joined to the adjacent constituency of Paithan Reserve after forming the Ambad consti~ tuency- 173. Jalna South and 174. Jalna North.

Both these constituencies comprise of Jalna taluka and certain part of Jafarabad Mahal and one E.D. of Ambad taluka. This has been avoided in these fresh proposals and the Jalna Taluka has been divided into two parts only first Jalna South constituency was formed and then the Jalna North constituency was formed. For the deficit of the population Jafara- bad Mahal was connected to Jalna North constituency. This has saved Jafarabad Mahal from being splitted into two constituencies.

175. Bhokardan.

The Bhokardan taluka has been kept intact. The Ajanta E.D. of Sillod taluka has been connected to Bhokardan taluka to make up the deficiency of the population- 176. Sillod.

Sillod taluka has been kept intact except joining of Ajanta E.D. to Bhokardan. Moreover Soegaon Mahal has been joined intact to SJllod taluka to form full-fledged constituency. 177. Kannad.

The Kannad constituency has been formed with whole of Kannad taluka and Savangi E.D. of Khuldabad Mahal. The joining of Banoti E.D. of Soegaon Mahal to Kannad taluka is avoided from the print of view of communication between these talukas since they are hilly tracts between them. 178. Vaijapur.

This has been kept intact as it is-

179. Gangapur.

This has also been kept intact as it is and Khuldabad E.D. of Khuldabad Mahal has been joined to it

454 . , GA , . L . L , . I I-

180. Aurangdbad West.

Aurangabad West constituency has been formed as per the old Auran- gabad Constituency in the last general elections without making any changes.

181. Aurangabad East

In the last general elections after formation of the Aurangabad consti- tuency remaining part of the Aurangabad taluka was joined with Paithan constituency. In my fresh proposals, the same constituency has been kept as it is with smallest alteration which was absolutely necessary.

182. Paithan Reserve.

This constituency was formed by joining the remaining parts of Paithan and Ambad constituencies.

Taking into consideration the above facts I prefer these new proposals and regret to accept the old proposals of the Commission.

I agree with above proposal.

Associate Members of the Delimitation Commission from the State of Maharashtra.

VII

I propose decenting proposal to the delimitation of Assembly consti- tuencies of Sholapur district in Maharashtra State.

I adduce reasons for my proposals as under: —

1. The present constituencies are as delimited which do not con- form well denned principles of revenue administrative bound- aries, river, communications and contiguity of the areas.

2. (a) Mohal taluka has been exactly divided into two parts, hence it is not convenient for revenue administration. In my pro- posal Mohal taluka is completely together.

(b) The big Bhima river flows in constituency No. 203 and Sina river in constituency No. 205 and there is no bridge to go to the areas.

3. Due to rivers there is no road communication at all.

4. Due to artificial areas attached to each other there is no con-

tiguity. In my proposal contiguity is maintained.

5. The total population of the Mohal taluka is 123,078 and that of Scheduled Caste 20,188. The percentage that of scheduled caste is 16.4. According to my proposal if you add Modninb E.C. in Madha taluka the population is 15,710 and that of scheduled caste 2,332, the total population will be 138,788-

6. The population of Sangola taluka is 128012 and that of Karmala taluka 128,345, but separate seat is given to Karmala so also a separate seat should also be given to Sangola.

SlC. ;m . i GA. . A M.t u If „

7. Surplus population of adjacent taluka has been added to form

constituencies of Mangalwadha and North Sholapur, in my proposal, where all sorts of facilities are available.

8. Since the principal of adding E.C. has been accepted and major changes in Nagpur city constituencies and in Sangli district has been accepted hence my proposal of Delimiting Sholapur District can be acceptable. This proposal was appreciated by Shri M. L. Jadhav and Shri B. D. Deshmukh and some other Associate Members in the meeting.

9. I attach herewith my proposal, which, please be published as per section 9(2) (a) of the Delimitation Act, with the above reasons.

G. B. Meshram, M.L.A., Associate Member.

In regard to the proposals of Satara district, I think it would be better to rearrange the constituencies from the points of view of communica- tions and contiguity. There are hilly tracts between Satara and Jaoli talukas and if Parali E.D. of Satara taluka is joined to Jaoli, the candidate from Jaoli will have first come to Satara and then go to Parali. There are no direct communications between Parali E-D. and the Jaoli taluka. A part of Limb E.D. in Satara taluka has also been joined to the Jaoli constituency probably because of the presence of the Satara Municipality in the periphery of this E.D. I have now ascertained that Satara Munici- pality is at the corner of this E.D. and the Municipality is not surrounded by any part of the E.D. I, therefore, suggest the following new constitu- encies, which will disturb the taluka boundaries to the minimum.

(1) Waduth E.D. of Satara taluka should be joined to Wai instead

of the Wathar Station E.D. from Koregaon taluka.

(2) The whole of the Limb E.D. should be joined to Jaoli consti- tuency instead of a part of it as proposed. Jaoli taluka and Limb E.D. have good communications between them.

(3) The rest of the Satara taluka with Satara Municipality will form a separate constituency without excluding the Parali E.D. as proposed.

(4) Phaltan constituency should be kept as proposed.

(5) Rest of the portion from Phaltan taluka should be joined to>

Man taluka to form the Man constituency.

(6) Khatav and Koregaon talukas will have one constituency each.

(7) From the Patan laluka a small E.C. Umarkanchan of the Dhabewadi E.D. should also be taken out and added to the Karad South constituency. Patan taluka minus this area will be independent constituency.

(8) Karad South and Karad North constituencies should be re- arranged as follows. Only small changes are involved in this arrangement.

Karad North

Karad taluka (excluding Undale, Kole, Rethare BK, Kale E.Ds. and Kapil E.C, in Karve ED.

Karad South

Kale, Undale, Kole, Retharp BK E.Ds. and Kapil E.C. of Karve E.D. in Karad taluka and Kumbhargaon E.D. and Umarkanchan E.C. of Dhabewadi E.D. in Patan taluka.

2. I regret, I am unable to subscribe to the view of the Commission to allot a S.C. seat to Satara district. The Commission has tried to spread over the six S.C. seats by allotting one to each of the districts in Poona division. While doing so, Satara district which has the least percentage of S.C. population (-50) is given one seat while two other districts—Shola- pur and Kolhapur—which have higher percentage 1-61 and 1-22 have also received one seat each. Man constituency in Satara district to which this seat is proposed to be allotted has only 7:82% of S.C. population which is the lowest in whole of the Division. There are as many as 8 constituencies, six in Sholapur and two in Kolhapur—where the popula- tion of S.C. is more than 14%. In other Divisions, the Commission, it

appears, has followed the principle of allotting S.C. seats where the per- centage is highest. It is not known why this should not be followed in •case of Poona Division. I think, Madha, which has 15-20% of S.C. popula- tion should get a S.C. seat. In the last General Elections Madha was a S.C. seat and, therefore, there is very justification to it being continued so this time also. The disadvantage of having two reserved seats will Also be set-off because of the addition of one more seat to this district.

Please make a change in the Shevgaon constituency by adding Chanda ED and Sonai E.G. of Sonai E.D. of Newa^a taluka. Include Taklibhan E.D. in Shrirampur constituency nf Ahraednagar district in Maharashtra State.
