DISSENTING PROPOSALS

I

I. DISTRICT GURDASPUR

Constituencies No. I to n

The constituencies in thia district are proposed to be modified as in me enciosea statement • This is being suggested for the following reasons:—

(i)1 This district is situated on the international boundary. The border areas with Pakistan are proposed to be so adjusted while forming the constituencies so that as much area of the border Is put together in a constituency as possible. With this in view, it is proposed to carve out a border constituency namely Dhianpur, comprising of border areas of Batala and Gurdaspur Tahsils. This will have impact on all the other constituencies in €)atala Tajsil and adjoining constituencies in Gurdaspur tahsil.

(ii) The Qadian Constituency as proposed by the Commission runs on 3 sides of the proposed Batala Constituency. The modifications now proposed will make the shape of the new two constituencies viz. Batala and Fatehgarh more compact.

(Hi) Dhar area has always been tagged with Pathankot City in the Tpast, while formulating constituencies, but this time this has been separated from the town. The Dhar area is connected with Pathankot City intimately. Its development depends entirely on clos e contacts with the city.

Composition of assembly constituencies in Amritsar District

With reference to your letter No. 282/PB/75/101 dated 6-1-1975 regarding delimitation of parliamentary and assembly constituencies in the State of Punjab, I have the honour to give below my dissenting proposals in respect of assembly constituenices Nos. 16} 17, 18 and 19 of Amritsar district.

1. In proposed delimitations while the total seats have been increased by 13, Amritsar City'* representation has been reduced by enlarging areaB of existing constituencies and adding rural areas in two constituencies. The population of Amritsar City, Cantonment, Chheharta and other suburban areas comes to about 457, 688 and four urban constituencies should be made without adding any rural areas which should be as follows:—

2. CONSTITUENCY-WISE:

AMRITSAR CITY (North).—In the proposed delimitation proposals certain rural and sub- urban areas have been included. It is a purely urban constituency and inclusion of rural areas will adversely affect the interest of both ruralltics as well as unwieldy to make it a compact and more acceptable the following change should be made:—

Ward No. 6 and P.C. 45 should be excluded and wards N08. 25 and 32 be included. T hc total population after this change will be 114,120.

Details are ttiven below:—

I  have  Just seen  a list of fuHni-lur  district regarding  assembly coi s'LirucncieH, i.e., Jullundur South  (SC) and Kartarpur  (SC). I  find  that  Patwar  Circles  No. 54 Kallian  Pura  and 55 Malko ha,vc  teen  shown  as  part  of the Jullu'idur  South  (SC)  constituency.  My suggestion  is  that these two pstwsr  circles should be excluded  from  Jnllundur  South  (SC) constituency  and included in  the Kortarpur  (SC) constituency  and similarly  Patwar  Circles  50 Chitti and 51 Sun^rm be ex- cluded  from  the Kartarpur  (SC) constituency  end included  in. the Jullundur  (South)  SC consti- tuency.  By so doing, the area  of hoth  these  constituencies  will  become  compact  and more con- tiguous.

KAPURTHALA  DISTRICT
Proposal for delimitation of constituencies  in  Kapurthala  district  (Punjab)
The  proposed  constituencies  of Kapurthala  district  except  Phagwara  do  not  conform  to clause No. 9 (a) of the  Delimitation  Act  1972 as due regard  has not been  given to the  Physical features,  facilities  of communications,  and administrative  and public  convenience.
The  proposed  Bholath  constituency  has been  carved  out on  one corner  of the district  in disregard to the above  requirements.  Bholath is a small village of no importance.  All  important offices  are located  at  Kapurthala  which  is  also  a  Sub-Divisional  Headquarters.  People  of the area  have to go to Kapurthala,  the  only nearest  town for all type  of  governmental  and com- mercial  activities.  Moreover,  in  the  proposed  constituency  the  communication  facilities arc  inadequate  and  all  roads  only  lead  to  Kapurthala.  Even  the proposed  Bholath  consti- tuency  ends  in the close proximity  of Kapurthalf-  In order  to fulfil  the requirement  of  Section 9(a)  with  certain  amendments  this  Bholath  constituency  can be easily re-named  as Kapurthala East.
The  attached  table  enumerating  the area  and  population  of the  three  constituencies,  viz.' Sultanpurj  Kapurthala  (West)  and Kapurthala  (East) is sent  herewith  for  acceptance "and  publica- tion  in  the  Gazette.

HOSHIARPUR  DISTRICT
Mote on the propose! delimitation  of  thi  Garshankar General and Mahilpur  Reserve  Cons~
tituen;ies in  Hoshiarpur Ii'utrizt  (Map  attached)  Punjab.
These  two  constituencies  cover  Garshankar  Tehsil  which  is  composed  of  two  distinct geographical  areas—the  sub-montaneous  area  bordering  on  Kangra  District  ofHimachal  Pra- desh  and  the plain  area bordering on Jullundur  District.  The  rough  dividing  line  between  the two  areas  as accepted  by the  State  Government  is the  Balachaur-IIoshiarpur  road  which  passes in the middle  of it.  Earlier  the  Garshankar  General  Constituency  covered  the  entire  Hill and sub-montancous  area  and  small  part  of  the  plain  of  the  Tehsil.  Mahilpur  Reserve  covered  the main  portion  of  the  plain  of  Garshankar  and  Iloshiarpur  Tehsils.
Now  in  the  new  alignment  proposed  by the  Election  Commission  a good  part  of  the  sub- montaneous  area  which  was  earlier  in  the  Garshanka'r  General  Constituency  (P.  C.'s  24,  26,, 31,  32,33,34.1  35)  36,  37, 38, 39, 40 of the  Mahilpur  K.C. and P.C.'s  34, 40.,  44  and  46 of  the Tutumazara  K.  C.)  have been transferred  to the  proposed  Mahilpur  Reserve  Constituency.
In  the proposed  new  set up  now  Mahilpur  Reserve  Constituency  is  covered  partly by  tha plain  area  and  also  by  a substantial  part  of  the  sub-montaneous  area.  In  Garshankar  General while a good part  would  be Hill  and  sub-montaneous  area, yet  there would  be  some  plain  areas as well, such  as P.C.'s  51, 52, 69, 70 of the  Tutumazera  K.C.  and  P. C.'s  71, 72, 73, 75, 77, 78 of the  Garshankar,  K.C.
The  social  and  economic  set  up  of  the  two  areas  and  the  problems  faced  by  the  people  are different.  Vast track  in  sub-montaneous  area  has  almost  no irrigation  facilities.  The  soil is  very poor.  It  is almost untouched  by the green  revolution. Hence the living standards  of th<  people are much  lower than the  plain  area.  Compared  to this the plain  area is  prosperous.'It  has  good  soil and  assured  irrigation.  In  the  sub-montaneous  area  roads  and  transport  facilities  arc  terribly lacking. There is no  such problem in the plain  area. The plain area is  one  of  the most  advanced in the State in the field  of education. Educational facilities  in the sub-montaneous area arc considerably- lacking. Same applies to the  medical  facilities.
It  was  in  view  of  this  situation  that  the  state  Govt.  decided  to  pay  special  attention  to  the development  of  the  sub-montaneous  area,  that  is  the  area  cast  of  the  Balachaur  Garshankar- Hoshiarpur-Dasuya-Mukarian  Road  dividing  the • Hoshiarpur  District.  It  also constituted  a  special sub-montaneous  Area's  Development Advisory Council  to expedite  the development of the  area.
Wherever  the  sub-montaneotu  areas  arc  vivisected  and  parts  attached  to  constituency with  the  plain  areas  then  generally  there  is  a tendency  on  the  part  of  the  legislators  to  ignore  the backward  areas  and  mainly  cater  to  the  needs  of the more  strong  and  vocal  people  of the plains. Hence  it is due to this thai  in Hoshiarpur  the people of the  sub-montaneous  areas  have again  and again  demanded  that  the  constituencies  in  these  areas be  so demarcated  that  the  sub-monteneou" areas  are  constituted  into  separate  seats.
In the proposal for Hoshiarpur the Election Commission has generally followed the principle Such proposed  constituencies  as Tanda  and  Sham Churasi  are totally in the plain area;  Balachaur, Hoshiarpur,,  Gardhiwala,  Mukarian  lie  mostly  in  the  sub-montaneous  tract.  However,  Mahilpur and  Garshankar  have  been  made  into  mixed  constituencies,  with  Mahilpur  being  roughly  60% plain  area  and  40%  sub-montaneous  area  and  Garshankar  70%  sub-montaneous  and  30%  plain area.
(I)  This  situation is not in  the  best interest  of cither the people of the area or the legislators who would represent  them.  It is, therefore,  proposed  that the entire  sub-montancous  area east of the  main  road that is P. C.'s  24, 32, 33, 34, 3?J 36, 37, 39 and  40 of the Mahilpur  K . C,  P.  C.'s 38,. 41, 44 and 46 of the  Tutomazara  K.  C. be shifted  to the Garshankar  General  Constituency  and  in lieu of that P. C.'s 51, 52, 69, 70 of the Tutomazera K.C. and  P.  C.'s  71, 72, 73, 75, 76, 77, 78 of the Garshankar  K.  C.  be  shifted  to  the  Mahilpur  Reserve  Seat.  Both  the  areas  are  contiguous  to  the respective  seats.  Both  are  served  by  the  same main  road  that  is  the  Garshankar-Hoshiarpur Road,  On  the  asis of the above the total  population of the Mahilpur Reserve Seat would be 1,13450 with 39, 410 Scheduled  Caste population, that is 34.74%  of the total. The  Garshankar  General  Scat will have a total popluation of 1, 02, 462 with  Scheduled Caste population of 30, 444, thut is 29.71%
(II)  In  case such  a  major  adjustment  were not possible then  the  Tutomazera  K.  C.  be so  divided  that  the  maximum  sub-montaneous  area  is  linked  with  Garshankar  General  and  the plain  area with  Mahilpur  Reserve.  On  this  basis  the Patwar  Circles  38, 41, 44, 46  of  Tutomazera (Population  9,703  S.  C.  3350)  be  added  to  Garshankar  and  Patwar  Circles  51, 69, 70 of the same- K.  C.  (Population  10079  S.  C. 3624)  be  shifted  to  Mahilpur  Reserve. This  will not  only be in  the general  interest  of  the  people  as  stated  avbove,  but  will  also increase the  percentage  of  Scheduled Caste  population  in  Mahilpur  seat.

MEMORANDUM  FOR THE CREATION  OF A SEPARATE ASSEMBLY  CONSTITUENCY FOR  THE  SUB-MONTANEOUS  (KANDI)  AREA  OF  HOSHIARPUR  DISTRICT,  PB.
During  the  past  3 years we have  approached  the Punjab  Government  on a number  of occa- sions  requesting  them  about  the  necessity  of  creating  a  separate  assembly  constituency  for  the sub-montancous  (KANDI)  area of Hoshiarpur  district,  Punjab.  Unfortunately,  no concrete  propo- sals have ever been drawn-up and suitable  recommendations made to the Delimitation  Commission to  correct  the  existing  wrong  demarcation  of  constituency  boundaries  which  arc  depriving* the Kandi area people of proper representation  in  the Punjab  State Assembly.  This is a social  injustice in  a  democratic  country.
One  of  the  reasons  why there  is  unrest  in  this  part  of  the  State  is  due  to  the  fact  that  the Kandi  area has been  artificially  divided  and  attached  with  S Assembly  Constituencies,  comprising mostly of plain areas  with  the  result  almost  all  the  money  earmarked  for  the  sub-mountanou8 (KANDI)  area is spent in the plain  areas, leaving virtually nothing for the KANDI  area.
Moreover,  during  the  past  27  years,  the  Punjab  Government  has  miserably  failed  in providing  the  bare  and  much-needed  basic  amenities  to  the  people  of  Kandi  area,  while  one- could  witness  so much  development  work  taking  place  in  the  plain  areas.
It would be in the best interest of the public as well as the  State Government  if our request to  create  a  separate  Assembly  Constituency  is  given  favourable  consideration  and  the  existing disparity  removed  without  further  delay.
We,  therefore,  propose  thatKanungo  Circle Datarpur, having  a  population  of  more  than 60,545  should  be  named  as a new  constituency  for  the  Kandi area of Hoshiarpur  district  This  will cover half of the really affected  Kandi area which is suffering  very badly on this account.  If need be, the  12  Paiwar Circles from  Garbdiwala  Kanmigo Circle and  qny other Patwar  Circles falling in the Kandi area may also be included  in  this  proposed  new  constituency  so  that  all  the  Kandi  area could be brought under  one  Assembly  Constituency.
It  is  further  submitted  that  whole  of  the  Kandi  area is  facing  the  same  kind  of  problems and  is  compact  homogenous  unit  geographically,  linguistically,  culturally  and  economically.
Under  the  circumstances,  we would request  your kind  honour  that  due  consideration  may kindly  be  given  to  our  above  request.

It  is  proposed  that  constituencies  Nos.  453  46  and  49—52  in  Hoshiarpur  district  may be  suggested  as  follows  ;—
^Constituency  Nos.  49  to 52.
(i)  Dasuya as now proposed  may  be reserved  instead  of  Garhdiwala  us prtpestd  by  the Commission,  so  as  to  provide  one  reserved  constituency  in  Dasuya  Tehsil  itself. One constituency viz.  Sham  Chaurasi  has  already  been  re?tivtd  in  Hoshiarpur Tobsil  as such  2nd  constituency  may not  be reserved  in that  Tehsil.
(ii)  These  4  constituencies  as  now  being  proposed,  are  carved  CUT in  such  a way,  so as to  keep  the  Kandi  area  and  the  rest  of  the  area  separately,  so  as  to  enable  the areas concerned  to  elect their  own representatives.

DELIMITATION  OF  CONSTITUENCIES—1975
I  have to make certain  suggestions regarding the composition  of constituencies m  Fofhiar- pur  district slightly at variance with the draft  compoalt'on made by the Delimitation  Coirm'fficn, a copy of which was sent by you to me on January  1,1975.  The modifications  proposed  in  Baia- chauTj  Garshankar,  Mahilpur,  Dasuya  and Talwara  (Mukerian)  Constiiuencfes  ere g h tr  In the attached statement which shows revised extent of each constituency,  As for the KEEOHS (uf £csn d for  the proposed  changes, these  are given  below in respect  of each  constiiurr.ty.
44.  Balachaur
The  population  of Balachur  constituency  as proposed by the Corrmifs'on  is 103433  wh'ch is the lowest in Hoshiaxpui: dis ric1^.  If my suggestion of including Pat-war circle  55 1? agreed to the  population  of this  constituency  will rise to  107652  which  is roughly  equal in number  to the population  of other two constituency  in this  sub-division.  This  Patwar  circle is in  Saroya  block which is a part of Sahlba Kanungo.  Moreover  this Patwar  circle is separated  by one dcrp  Khud from  other  villages of Garshankar  K.C.  The villages  of Patwar  circle  55 of the same  clan as of the  Balachaui  constituency.

:546  THE  GAZETTE  OF  INDIA  EXTRAORDINARY  [PART  Il-r-
45. Garshankar
Patwar  Circles  44  and  46  are  nearer  to  Garehankar  and  should  thcrtfore  nmfcin  in  Gar- shankar  constituency.  P.Cs.  42  and  43 which  are  mar  to  Mahiipur  constiiuency  should  be^ex- cluded  from  Garshankar  constituency  to  make  MahiJpur  comtitucr.cy  nion  hcmigii-iut-  ,'lhe Garshankar  constituency  as  composed  at  present  has  become  mweildly  and  geographically  it  is not  a compact  unit.  A candidate  has to  pass through  Mahilpur  constituency  in  oidtr  to rcr.eh a P.C.  of  Garshankar  constituency  which  is  a  inconvenient  arrangement.
46.  Mahilpur  (S.C.)
From  the  draft  composition  of  Mahilpur  constituency  I  have  excluded  Patwar  circle  44 Tutu  Mezsr and 46 Sodulla Pur Badhvan and in their place have  included Pawi ar circle 42  and 43 from  Garshankar constituency.  In spite of these changes the  population remains almost the same but the constituency  becomes culturally and geographically  more compact and easily accessible to all concerned.
51. Dasuya
Composition  of Dasuya constituency  as proposed  by the  Commission  gives it  a population • of  1,28,587 whereas according to the  composition  as given  by me  above, the  population  comes  to 1,27,007 which is almost the same bul  my proposal makes the constituency more comptcl  putting people  with  the  same  cultural  affinity  in  the  same  constituency.
Patwar circles 22, 23,24, 25,27 and 28 of Hajipur  K.C. are only 5 to 7 miles from  Dasuya and  are  therefore  easily  accessible  to  Dasuya,  Moreover  they  are  in  Dasuya  block  and  should naturally  come in  Dasuya  constituency  rather  than  in  Mukerian  constituency  as  contemplated  by "the  Commission.
52.  Talwara
Against  S. No.  52, Mukcrian  has  been  made  a constituency.  I  propose  that  ihe  name of this constituency should be Talwara and should comprise of Talwara and Hajipur  K.Cs. as  detailed above.  The  population  of this constituency  remains  almost The same.
It is also observed tl at the three reserved seats in Hoshiarpur  district viz. Mahilpur,  Sham- churasi and  Garhdiwala  are contiguous  to each  other.  This  puts  the  general  voters  of  this  huge area  at  a slight  disadvantage  as  they  cannot  send  a representative  from  amongst  the  "General'* voters.  It  would  be  more  appropriate  to  stagger  ihe  reserved  seats  to  give  a fair  chance  to  all areas.  For example, I would suggest that Mahilpur which is a reserved scat since  1952  may  now be made  general so that this  continuity  is broken  and in its place  Garshankar  may  be  made a re- served  constituency.  It  was  last  so  in  1952.

ROPAR  DISTRICT
Declaration  of  Ropar or Morinda as Reserve instead  of  Kharar  as proposed
It  is  subjnitttd  a;  fellow. :—
Amendment  No,  i.
According to the Draft proposals for Assembly Constituencies of Ropar  district, the percent- age of  Scheduled  Caste  population  is  a.i  follows:—
-Nangal No. 65  • Anandpur  No. 66 R^par No. 67  • Morinda No. 68 Kharar  No. 69 •
16  12  % 20'19  % 26-26  % Z5-39  % 25-70  %
In  the  face  of the  above figures  a^l  the  accepted  principle  of  delimitation  that  constitue- ncies  with  larger  Scheduled  Caste population  Will hi  declared  Reserve.  Ropar  with the  highest,- percentage of  Scheduled Caste population in the entire district should  be made  Reserve and  not Kharar  as has been done.  The abovesuggtstion is made in the above background.
Amendment  No.  2.
According  to the draft  prnpisals, the p >pn.ilation  of proposed  Morinda has  been  increased to  120762 from  rhe existing  109016 (according to present delimitation)  and the population of exist- ing  Kharar  constituency  has  been  reduced  from  1,30,465  to  1,04,708  by  taking  out  9  PC's  of Mullanpur  K.  C. which  at present are a part of Kharar constituency.  As such proposed  Morinda has  b:cn  male  unusually  big  and  proposed  Kharar  has  been  made  unusually  small.  Hence  to normalize this  population  gap it is sugg-sted  that instead  of taking out  all the 9 P  C's  of  Mullan- pur KG.,  only 4  K.  C's  i.e.  1,  2,  3, and  7 b-  taken  out  and  P.  C's  8, 9,  10, 11, 14 of  Mullanpur K.  C.  be  retained in the proposed Kharar  in  the interest of fairness  and  justice.

Constituencies  No,  65  to 69.
(1)  Constituencies  Nos.  65  to  67  are  proposed  to  be  modified  as  per  list  enclosed  for  the
reasons  given  below:—
(i)  The  population  of  Nangal  Constituency  as  proposed  by  the  Commission  comes  to
86,117  and  of  Anandpur  Sahib  1,19,846.  This  population  needs  to  be  adjusted, (ii)  Naya  Nangal  in  23-Kanchehra  K.  C.  and  Nangal  Township  in  No.  1,  Nangal  Nikku
P,  C.  may  be  placed  in  one  constituency  viz.  in  Nangal.
To  make up  the  population  of Nongal  constituency, P.  Cs. 21 and  22 of Ropar  K.  C.
may  be  added  to  Anandpur  Sahib  Constituency.
A  small  portion  of  Ghanauli  K.  C.  viz.  P.  Cs.  13—29  may  be  added  to No.  67  consti- tuency  alongwith  rest  of  the  Ropar  K.  C.  This  will  make  the  population  of  the  two constituencies  within  prescribed  limits.  No.  66-Anandpur  Sahib  Constituency may  be  named  as  Anandpur  Sahib-Ropar.
No. 67 constituency will then include the portion of Nangal K. C. excluded from  Anandpur Sahib  Constituency  and  exclude  P.  Cs.  21  and  22  of  Ropar  K.  C.  proposed  to  be added  to  Anandpur  Sahib  Constituency.  As Ropar  will  go out  of this  constituency, this may be named  as Chamkaur  Sahib.  This  constituency will  have  29-04%  S.Cs. and  may thus  be reserved  for  S.  Cs. instead  of  69-Kharar.

It  is  suggested  that;—
1.  The  proposals  do not take  into  consideration  the fact  that  on average  a  parlia- mentary  constituency  is to include  a population  of about  10,42,000.  The  Ropar  parliamentary constituency  as proposed  has  more  than  10,70,000  population  whereas  Hoshiatpur  constituency has  a population  of only  10,20,000.  This  disparity  can be rectified  by having  the Assembly con- stituency  Nos. 65 and 66 a bit larger  than  the other  constituencies in the district.  My proposals enclosed  herewith  reduce  the  disparity  to mifce  their  population  figures  10,52,000  in Ropar  con- stitiisacy  and  10,38,000  in  Hoshiarpur  constituency.
2.  Assembly constituency  No. 65 Nangal is shown to be covering a population of 1,07,473 but, in fact,  according to the corrected  figures  (vide the errata  slip)  has only  a population  of 86,117 though  the average in the district  is about  1,10,000 (precisely  1,09,800).  The  disparity  is even more  than  the permissible  10%.  So, we have  to include  P. C. No. 1 Nangal  Nikku  of Anand- pur  Sahib  K. C. as a whole in this  constituency.  By this  change  the entire  population  of Nangal Town  would  come  into  the same  constituency.
3.  As a consequential  amendment  to the Assembly  constituency  No. 66 Anandpur  Sahib, and  to make it of proper  size,  the P. Cs. 21 Khawaspura  and 22 Ropar  of Ropar  K. C. have to be  includej  in it and taken  out of 67-Ropar  constituency,  which  now would  be  better  to be named  as  Chamkaur  Sahib  constituency.
4.  In order  to make  up the loss  of P.  Cs. Nos. 21-Khawaspura  and  22-Ropar,  we  have to  include in constituency  N o. 67-Ropar  (or Chamkaur  Sahib)  also  the P. Cs.  Nos. 70-Bamnara, 7i-Kainaur,  72-Saheri,  79-Kalaran,  81-Khant  and 83  Pan)  Koha  of  Morinda  K. C. in  addition to  the 9 P. Cs. already  proposed  in the proposals.

SEC.  3(ii)]  THE  GAZETTE  OF  INDIA  EXTRAORDINARY  551
5.  Morinda  constituency,  as  proposed  in  the  proposals  is  too long.  It  runs  from  the border of district Ludhiana to the bordrr of Haryana, towards the north of the Punjab and  Haryann High  Court.  It  does  not have  any regard  for  geographical  and physical  features  and  linca  of communication.  One has to pass through  Kharar  while going from  Morinda to Mullanpur  K. C. The  public inconvenience has also been ignored.  Thus it is against the letter and spirit of Section 9  of  the  De-Limirarion  Act.  This defect  can  be  rectified  by re-constituting  69-Kharar  consti- tuency,  so as to  contain  K. Cs. Mullanpur  and  Manauli  and half  of  Kharar K.  C,  as shown in the  enclosed  proposals.  Consequently  68-Morinda  constituency  will  consist  of  Kurali  K. C. and  the remainder  of Kharar  K. C. and Morinda K.  C. [excluding the P. Cs. which  are required to  be  added  to  67 Chamkaur  Sahib,  (Ropar  constituency.]

I  enclose  a Performs  showing  revised  demarcation  of some of the  constituencies in Patiala District  for consideration  of the Commission  as detailed below:—.
70'BcmuT.
Lalru  K. C.  is geographically  and administratively  a part  of Dera  Bass!  Sub Tehsil and Dera  Bassi  Block.  Even in all previous  Delimitations  sience  1952) Lalru K. C. and  Dera  Bass! K.C. have been  put together in the same Assembly Constituency.  Even in present  Punjab  Assem- bly  Constituency, the Lalru  K. C. and  Dera  Bassi K. C. form  part  of same  Constituency  namely Banur  Constituency.  In the Commission's proposals, Lalru  K.C,  excludirg  Lalru  P.C.  has  been proposed  as part  of 72-Ghanaur  constituency,  whereas  Dera  Bassi  K.C.  and Banur  K.C.  have been grouped  together In proposed  Banur  constituency.  The  Lalru  K. C. has no direct  means of communication  with other parts of proposed  72-GbanBur  constituency,  although  on map it  looks to be contiguous  area.  The  river of Gtaggar  divides  Lalru  K.C.  and Mardanpur  K.C.  horizon- tally  and no part of these  K.Cs. is contiguous  except  through  river  bed.  There  is no bridge in this  area.  Iffrom  the proposed  Ghanaur  constituency, one has to go to any place in Lalru  K.C. which  has now been included  In Ghanaur constituency,  one has to go by road  via Ambala  city In Haryana  by travelling  eight  miles  in Haryana  territory.  While  Dera  Bass!  K.C.  and Lalru K.C.  are  a compact  Block  falling  on both sides on Ambala-Ralka national  highway.  So it is in the  fitness  of  the  things  that  Banur  constituency  should  be  re-d"narcaied as  proposed  above  and  consequential  changes  may be  made  in  the  proposed  other constituencies  suggested  by  me.
7 l-Rajpura-
The  Commission  has proposed  Rtjpura  constituency  consistlrg  of Rsjpura  K.C.  erd peit of  Raipur  K. C. in Patiala  Tehsil.  The  proposed  Rajpurn  constituency  hen  been  mede  urneceK- sarily  lengthy.  It starts  from  the  municipal  limits  of Patiala  city  and reaches  near  Banur i.e. a  distance of about 22 miles in length  and a width  of only 4 miles.  The  changed  demarcation of this  constituency,  as shown by me In the enclosed  profonoa  make it more  compact  and physically convenient to everybody.
72-Ghanaur.
 
My  suggestions  for Banur  and Rajpura  constituencies  will  take  out Lahu  K.C.  frcm  this proposed  constituency  and part of Raipur  K.C. from  Rajpura  constituency  proposed  by the  Com- mission. Raipur  K.C. in Patiala TchBil which is more contiguous  and  well connected  with  Ghanaur

5  56  THE  GAZETTE  OF  INDIA  EXTRAORDINARY  [PART  II—
K G.  b: i 1-1 i ( :l  \T  Q u n ir  cimituency  as in all the previous  delimitations  uptil  now,Ghanaur K.C.  BTii  Raipur  K.C.  have  formed  part  of  one  and  the  same  constituency.  So  it  Is  desirable that  Ghanaur  K.C  and  Raipur  K.C.  should  form  part  of one  constituency,  as  it  will ensure  con- tinuity  and  compactness  of  the  area.  The  Ghanaur  Constituency  as now  proposed  by  the  Com- mission  Is lengthy  and  not  compact  and  divided  by Ghaggar  river  which  has  no  bridge in  the  area. Piiyjical  feature  conditions  have  bren  totally  Ignored  by  the  commission  while  making  this  pro- P3"'.  So  I  strongly  suggest  that  Lalru  K.C.  be  included  in  Banur  constituency  and  excluded fron  p-jpDiei  G ' m ut  condtu:ncy  and  instead  of  Lalru  K . C,  Raipur  K.C.  be  Included  In  It.
73 -Dakala.
At  the  Comiilsalon's proposed  Dikate  constituency  has a population  of  125689, It Is  desirable to  reduce its population  by excluding P.C's 72,73,74 of Raipur  K.C, from  it.  These  P.Cs-  may  bo Included in  th"  Ghansur  constituency  as  proposed  by  me  while  discussing  Ghanaur  constituency above. 74~$amana.
Ifmy  suggestions regiriing demarcation  of Ghmaur  constituency  are accepted then  Ghanaur constituency  will  have  lesser  percentage  of  scheduled  caste  population  and  the  Samana  consti- tuency as proposed  by the Commission  will hive higher concentration  arid percentgc  of  Sch-duled Caste population.  So I suggest that Samma may be midc a reserved constituency for the  Scheduled Castes.

The  draft  proposals  sent by yox hiv; not tak;n  into  consideration  certain  physical features  of the  three  abDVc named  constituencies  while  ^delimitating  them.  Minor, changes  ate required  to stabilise  the  said  three  constituencies.
I  suggest  the  following  changes:— 1.  ThatP.Cs-  i i) 12, 13 of Mahal Kala  K.C-  and P.Cs.  18, 22, 23 of  Bamala  K.C.  should go  to BhadaUi  S.Cs. constituency  and P.C. 60, 61, 62, 64 and  65 of  Tapa  K.C.  should  go  to Dhjnaula  constituency and P.Gs. 49, 51 and 47 of D'.iMaula  K.C should go to  Bamala  Assembly constituency.
By  this  'arrangement  Dhanaula  proper  would  b:come  a  part  of  Bamala  A^sernbly constituencyy-  Therefore  this  constituency  should  be renamed  as Tapa  instead of  Dhanaula.

It is requested  that  constituencies in this  district miy be adjusted  as in the enclosed  statement for  the  following  reasons:—
(i)  Saigrur  and B^wtfiigirh  towiis  arc closely  connected  and may be kept in  one consti- tuency.
(ii)  Dhanaula and Barnala toun  are closely connected and may be kept in one constituency, (iii)  A rural  constituency  may be  provided  by combining  areas of Bhavanigarh  and Dirba

Composition of Assembly  Constituencies  in  Sangrur  District
With  reference  to  your  letter  No.  282/Pb/75/iOi  dated  6-1-75,  regarding  dcHniitatkn  cf parliamentary and assembly constituencies in  the  State  of Punjab,  I  have  the  honour  to  give qelow  my dissenting  proposalsin  respect  of  Assembly  Constitucrcics  in  Sargrur  District,
1.  8j-Barnata  Constituency.
Barnala Constituency  formerly  compresed of the Whole of Barnala K. C.  excepting Patwar Circles 29 and 30-until apjpulation  o t ^i  and the Whole of Mahal Kalon K. C.  excepting Patwar Circle t t,  12 & 13 With a population 0^8316.  It also included  tWo Patwar  Circles Not,. 3 ard  3 A of Ahmedgarh  K.G.  With  a population  of  4752.  The  total  population  of  Barnala  constituency  was 1,40,047.
NoW the  Barnala constituency is being formed  only on  a population  of 1,10,704 while  the adjoining  Shcrpur  constituency has  a population  of  1,23,000.  I'D keep  a balance  and  equal dis- tribution  of population it  is  desirable  thatPatWar Circles 54 and 55  of K. C.  Sherpur which is contiguous  to  Barnala  constituency  and  having  a population  of  6428 be  excluded  from  Sherpur constituency  and  be  included  in  Barnala  constituency.  Thus  the  population  of  Barnala  consti- tuency  Will become 1,17,132 and that of Sherpur  constituency Will also be about 1,17,000.
That  incasetheaV>ve-mentionedtWo  PatWar Circles cannot  be  included in Barnala eonstito tuency then Patwar  Circle 72 in KG.  Circle Barnala, as will be  revealed  from  a  cursory  look  a1 the  mip be  added to Barn alaconstifuency .This PatWar circle has apopulation of 2527 and is connec- ted  by  roai only  with Barnala. Its  grain market, banks, court etc. are all at Barnala.  So ihc  inhabi- tents  ofthis  village have to go to Barnala for  all their needs.  There Is no  justification  for keeping this  Patwar  circle in  Sherpur  constituency.
Tt is, th;r;f:>r:,  prayed  thac small modifications,  as prayed  above,  may kindly be made in the  Barnala  constituency.
2.  %6-Sangrur  Constituency.
Sangrur  Constituency  is formed  on a much  smaller population  that Bha.wanigarh  consti- tuency and  it is most desirable that some Patwar  circles of  BhaWanigarh  K.  C. which  are contig- uous  to  Sherpur  constituency  be  added to  it.
PatWar  Circles 1 and 2A and (B),  Patwar Circles 10 and 57  are such circles which can very conveniently be  added to the Sangrur constituency  to equalise the population of these two adjoining constitu;ncies.  Formerly  Patwar  Circle  57 was  a part  of  Sangrur  K.  C.  and  was  only  recently transferred  to  BhaWanigarh  K-  C. PatWar Circles  1 and  2 are  also very  conveniently  situated  fcr being  aided  to Sangrur  constituency  and  with the inclusion  of  these PatWar Circles  in  Sargiur constitunncy  there  will be  better  distribution  of population.  These  Patwar circles  Were  formerly part  of Sangrur  Assembly Constituency.
It  h,tli-r::f->re,prayedthatinth-  puSlic  interest  PatWarclrclesNos.57,1, 2,andicof  K.C Bha vaiigarh  may kindly b: aided  to Sangrur  constituency.

io-FEROZEPUR  DISTRICT
PUNJAB  ASSEMBLY  CONSTITUENCY  NO.  91—ABHOR.
We  understand  that  some  people  with  "political  motivation"  are trying  to get  the  above constituency  converted  into  a  "Reserved"  constituency.  This  Would  naturally  mean  "down grading"  of  this  Important  constituency.
It  looks  that  efforts  are  being  made  to  act  some  P.Cs  included  in  this  constituency,  fo* instance,  Nog.  47,  61  and  62  on  the  pica  that  the  villages  of  these  are "semi  towns"  and ere the suburbs  of Abhoa  Town.  This  is  entirely  mischevious  and incorrect.  As  a  matter  of  fact  that these villages have always been in  Fazilka constituency and have been in  the Jurisdiction  of  Khuian Sarwar Police Station.  By no stretch of imagination  these villages  can  be termed  as "mini  towns" and  or  suburbs  of  Abhoar.
Wefmther  learn  thit  th-:sc  p-oph—with  selfish  personal ends in  view— want  to get  P.C. No.  52 excluded from  Abalm  coisituency— notwithstanding the fact that these villages have been in  the  constituency  ever  since  its  formation.
Another  plea such  advocates  advance is  that  Malaut-a  Tehsil town  ond  Faridkot  9 district, town—have  been  made  "reserved  constituencies"—then  why  not  Abohar?
Permit  us to  state  that  Abohar  has  been  and  continues  to  be the  "biggest"cotfon  market  in the  whole  of  India.  Abohar  has  b^en  one  of  the  most  important  "commercial  centre"  of tbe country  and  dominates  the  whole  of  the  area  in  matters  of  nnance} industrial  development and political  movements  too,
Malaut  is  a  small  Mandi—Insignificant—as  compared  to  Ahohar.  And  Faridkot  was a "dying  town"  and  raised  to  0 district  station  to  save it  from  extinction.
Abohar  has  a  papulation  of  about  100,000  souls  (one  lak)at  present,  and  it  has  almost  all the  leading  Banks—.staffed  by  seniormost  Executives—.doing  busiresB  worth  crores  of  rupees.
We, therefore,  request  you  that  this  constituency  should  be  allowed  to  remain  as it  is  and hould  not  be  reserved  at  alltor  the  best interest  and  development  of  this  border  town.
SADHU  RAM  M.P, XXVII  Associate  Member.
We  beg  to  sutc  as  under  :—
I.  that  while  proposing  tbe  constituencies  of  Zira  Sub  Division  and  Ferozepur  Sub  Divi- sion,  in  District  Ferozepur,  following  facts  have  not  been  kept  into  consideration  :—
(j)  that  this  area  is  situated  on  the  border  o*  Pakistan  and  the  natural  boundary  of  river Satluj  end  Bess  divides  it  from  a  foreign  country.
(ii)  that  the  people  residing  within  the  boundary  limit  of  about  ten  miles  are  backward and  they  have  no  permanent  source  of  their  living.  They  arc  always  afraid  of  foreign  attach. They  are  quite  right in  apprehending  such  an  attack  because  there  have  been  three  or  four  such attacks in  the last  9 or  10 years.  Aa such the  people  of this boundary limit ere very poor.  Apart from  this, this  boundary  limit  has  not  been  properly  developed  even  by  the  Governments.  As this area has not been  properly and  effectively  represented  by any person  belonging to this area  no industry is  fixed  in  this  area.
(iii)  this area  of about ten  miles from  the  border is also effected  by floods.  This  factor  has also  added  to  the  economic  backwardnrss  of  the  people  of  this  sres,
(iv)  that  people  residing  within  the  area  of  10/I2  miles  belt  mostly  belong to  either  back- ward  classes  or  those,  who have  been  migrated  from  Pakistan  to  India  at  the  time  of  partition. On  these  grounds  there  have  been  consistert  demands  of  these  people  that  they  should  be given  proper  representation  in  the  Legislative  Assembly.
As the abave mentioned  facts  have not  been  considered  while proposing the  constituencies, proposals  already  made  are  eroneous  and  do not  justify  the  genuine  claims  of the  various  types of
 
Eersons  residing in  this  ilaqa-  As  you  will  kindly  see  that  Feiozepiu  Cantt.  and  Ferozepur  City as been  combined  in  one  constituency  and  thereby  the  rural  area  and  the  urban  areas have  been competely  separated  from  each  other.  Rural  area  is  dominated  by  Sikhs  whereas  Urban  arc" is  completely  dominated  by  Hindus,  Such  demarcation  would  not  certainly  give  a  secular  out look.  Apait  from  this  the  principle  of  geographical  continuity  has  not  been  kept  in  mind  while

SEC.  3(il)l  THE  GAZETTE  OF  INDIA  EXTRAORDINARY  563
demarcating the constituencies in  Fcrozepur  and  Zira  Sub Divisions, such as if  P.C. 24 of Feroze, pur  K.C.  there  are  entirely  independent  two  notified  Municipal  Committees  i.e.  of  Fcrozepur City  and  also  of  Tankanwali.  The  distance  between  these  two  Municipal  Committees  is  about two miles whereas the distance  of Municipal Committee TanfcanWali with that of Ferozepur  Cantt. h  hardly  two  furlongs.  Sentimentally  and  emotionally  people  of  Tankanwali  are  more  attached with  the  Cantonment  than  that  of  Ferozepur  Municipal  Committeej  but  as they fell in  one  P.C. that  has resulted in  keeping these two in  one  Constituency.  However, without  going into  details we  are  of  the  definite  view  that  overall  changes  are  bound  to  be  made  so  that  the  principles  of geographical  contiguity, the  emotional  and  social feelings  of  the  people  and  also  fot  maintaining the  secular  outlook in  the  area will have to  b:  nv?t.  While  keeping these things in  view we have attached herewith our suggestion for delimiting  the constituencies in  Zira and Ferozepur  Sub  Divi- sions In  District  Ferozepur.
Therefore,  we  will request  the  Commission  that  these  fundamental  points  should  be  kept in  mind  while delimiting the  constituencies  of this area.  We hope that this demand  of the  people of  Sub-Divisions  Zira and  Ferozepur  will be fully  respected  and they will be  accorded  full  justice in  future  by  delimiting  the  constituencies  of  this  area  as  per  proposal mede  by  us.

ASSEMBLY  CONSTITUENCIES
APPEAL  AGAINST  THE  PROPOSAL  OF  DELIMITATION  COMMITTED MAKING  116  BUDHLADA  ASSEMBLY  CONSTITUENCY  OF  DISTRICT
BHATINDA,  PUNJAB  A  RESERVED  CONSTITUENCY
In  Punjab  the Work of delimitation  of constituencies  Is going  on.  The number of assembly in the  State  is  proposed  to  be increased  to  117 instead  of 104.  In  the  district  of  Bhatinda  ihcrc were  8 assembly constituencies  but notf  one Assembly scat has  been  increased  thus  taking  the number  to  be  9  for  the  forthcoming  General  Election.
2.  That  the  petitioners  have  come  to  know  from  the  proposed  recommendation  for  the delimitation  of  the Assembly constituencies  that  116 Bhudhlada  General  constituency  has  been proposed  to  be  reserved  for  scheduled  castes.
3.  That only  two constituencies  have to  be kept  reserved  for  scheduled  castes  in  Bhatinda district.  Last  time  Nathana  (112)  and  Faridkot  were  the  two  reserved  constituencies.  Now Faridkot  has  been  formed  a separate  district  and  hence  another  constituency  is  to  be  reserved for the scheduled  castes and surprisingly  enough  Budhlada has  been  proposed  to be made  a re- served  constituency  although  it  would  be clear from  the following schedule  that the  Budhlada constituency  stands  at number  3 in  *-he percentage  of  the schedule  castes  in  the  district:—

4.  Nathaiia  (112)  contains  the  highest  percentage  of scheduled  castes  which  comes  to  t>e 29-32  percent  and  pakka Kalian (110) has 27-65 per cent whereas Budhlada  has  47-37  percent of the scheduled  castes of the total population.  Keeping in view these facts  and figures Nathana and  Pakba-Kalan  should  be declared  to  be  the  Reserved  constituencies  in  district  Bhatinda.
5.  That  moreover Budhlada constituency has been  the reserved  constituency from  1953 to 1967-  Keeping  this  fact  also ln  view  the  Budhlada  constituency  should  not  be  made  reserved and  instead  som;  other  constituency  having  approximately  the  same number  of schdulcd  castes votes  be kept  reserved.
6.  That  as W.mld be clear from  the schedule given  in  para-  No.  3 above  Budhlada  consti- tuency  has  the  highest  p3p-.i1ation  as  compared  to  ahy  other  constituency  In  the  district  which is  120683  Whereas In  constituencies  No.  Tio,  113, 114 and  117 the  population  in  each  of  these cinstita-ncies  varies between  IOOOQO and noooo.  ItWouldbein  the fitness of  things  If  PatWar G'.rclc No. 36 HakamWalaof BudhlaiaK-C. should be excluded  from  the  Budhlada  constituency and  aided  to  Sardulgarh  ( T : 7)  constituency  which  geographically  falls  in  Sardulgarh  consti- tuency.  It  would  result  an  equal  distribution  of  votes  in  both  the  constituencies  which  you find  as  under!—
Present  population  if P.C.  No.  36 is  excluded  from  Budhlada  and  added  to  Surdulgarh the  number  of  population.
1.  Budhada 2.  Sardulgarh
120683 110876
116609 ii495°
If this  contention  of the  petitioners  is  accepted  then  both  Budhlada  and  Sardulgarh  cons- tituencies  Would  have  about  26 percent  of  the  scheduled  castes  population  .
G >nstitu2ncy has never been  a reserved  constituency  and  hence it should  be made a reserved constituency instead  of Budhlada which had  been  a reserved  constituency  for  fifteen  years  in  the past.
7.  M >rcover  C!iavik= has been  created  a  new constituency  and  it  can  be  made  a  reserved constituency  after  making  the  adjustment  of  population  with  the  adjoining  constituencies.
8.  That  the  petitioners  have  come to  understand  that  112-Nathana  and  1 10-Pakka-Kalan which  have the  high  at  pjrecntage  of scheduled  castes  population  have not  been  kept  reserved because both fall in  the same ?ub-Divlsion  otherwise in normal  circumstances  these  two  consti- tuencies Would have been  kept reserved  as they have  the highest number  of the schedule  castes population.  But to our great surprise this principle is being applied to the district Bhatinda only and  the same principle has not  applied in other district.  Some instances  are being quoted  below.

It in, therefore, respectfully  prayed that for the reasons given above tbe Budhlada constituency should not be made reserved constituency and Patwar Circle No. 36  Hakarnwalaof  Budhlada K.C- be  excluded  ftom  ..he Budhlada  constituency  and added to Sardulgarh  constituency  to  make the distribution  of population  these  constituencies  more  even.

ASSEMBLY  CONSTITUENCIES
Delimitation  of  constituencies in  Bhatinda  District.
I  enclose  a Proforma  suggesting  certain  changes  in the demarcation  of the following  consti- tuencies  in Bhatinda  District, as circulated in your  letter  No.  282/PB/75/101  dated  6th  January, 1975:—
1.  no-Pacca  Kalan. 2.  in-Bhatinda. 3.  ir2-Nathana. 4.  117-Sardulgarh. 5.  115-Mansa,
These  changes  have  been  suggested  with  a view  to cut short  excessive  distances  between the  two extreme  points  of constituencies,  to make the constituencies  more  compact  and homoge- neouB and to bring people of one cultural  affinity  in one constituency.  Geographical  considerations have  also  been  kept  in view  while  suggesting  these  modifications.  For example in constituency 117-Sardulgarh,  PC.-60 in Mansa  KC is 50 KMs.  away from  Sardulgarh  and only 7 KMs  from Mansa.  So it should  right  be included  in Manaa  Constituency  and taken out from  Sardulgarh. The  same  observations  apply  in the changes  proposed  in other  constituencies  as shown in the attached  proforma.

C  )M  J3 S[ TI ON 07  PHILLAUR  (RESERVED)  PARLIAMENTARY  CONSTITUENCY
I  W nU  Hk1; to bring to  your kind  notice that I came to know that  Sardar  Balbir Singh, Mi- nister,  G->v;rnment  of Punjab  has raised  objection  about the Inclusion  of Jullundur  Cantt.  As- s~m'>ly C > ncitu:ncy in Paillaur  Parliamentry  (Reserved) Constituency.  In this  regard  I utould like to inform  you  that  jullundur  Cantt.  Constituency is  very  near  and three  side  adjacent to Phillaur Parliamentary (Reserved) Constituency.  The percentage of Scheduled  Caste population in  Tulluiidur  Cantt. is 32-71  but whereas  the  Scheduled  Caste  population  in BHOLATH is 1 < -22  only  From  the very  beginning the BHOLATH is in  Jullundur  Parliamentary  Consti- tu-ncy  only.  The  distance  from  Phillaur to Bholath is nearly  135  mi l e s-
I  have  already  represented  With 9 Associated  Members  of Delimitation  Commission,  India about  Tanda  and Mahalpur  Constituencies  vide my letter  dated  the 29Th  Janumy,  1975 tub- mittcd  to you in the Commission  meeting held  on the 18th  February,  1975  ar>d  a copy  of the same  is enclosed  herewith  for your  ready  reference.
Under the circumstances  explained  above, I request you to kindly consider all he above factG and include Jullundur  Cantt.  Assembly Constituency  in Phillaur Parliemtrmiy (Reserved)  Cent- tituency.

COMPOSITION  OF PHILLAUR  (RESERVED)  PARLIAMENTARY  CONSTITUENCY Regarding  the  composition  of  the PHILLAUR  (S.C.)  Parliamentary  Constituency,  I am  10 say  that  the  TANDA  Assembly  Constituency  No. 50 has been  included  in  my Constituency  in piacc  of  MAHALPUK  (S,C.)  Assembly  Constituency  Nu. 40 which  is not at  all  contiguous  and compact.  Because,  landa  Constituency  is  away  from  PHILLAUJK about  120 K,M.  whereas  MAHALUPUR  Constituency  was only  50 K.M. far  away  from PHILLAUR.  Moreover,  the percentage  of  Scheduled  Caste  population/Voters  is  less  in TANDA  i.e., 23.93  per cem than  MAHALUPUR  whicJi  is  35.72  per cent.
Therefore,  I  request  you to please  let the PHILLAUR  Constituency  remain  as it wr^ and  do not put T A N DA  Assembly  Constituency  in  replacement  of  MAHALPUR  Cons1 tituency.

I  hope  you will  kindly  realise  ,the difficulty  explained  above  and accede  to my request

We,  associate  members  of  delimitation  committee,  Punjab  have  collectively  considered the  draft  proposals  sent  to us by the Commission  regarding  the Lok Sabha  Constituencies of  Patiala  and Sangrur,  Kopar  and Ludhiana.  We are  of  this  opinion  that  in view  of blatant  incongruities  in  the draft  proposals,  certain  amendments  need  being  made  in  their delimitation.
!
1.  Kumkalan  Assembly  Constituency  of  Ludhiana  District  consist  basically  of  the suburban  areas,  of  Ludhiana  city.  It  touches  and  occasionally  corrodes  the  municipal limits  of  Ludhiana  city.  But, for  electoral  purposes,  it  has  been  given  over  to  Ropar Parliamentary  Constituency.  To undo  this  great  injustice  to the electorate  of  this  cons- tituency  it  is essential  that  it  should  come  back  to  Ludhiana  Parliamentary  Constituency and  a  fringe  areas  of  Ludhiana  namely,  Raikot  should  be taken  out which  could  be accommodated  in  Sangrur  Parliamentary  Constituency.  Sangrur  in  its  own turn  should yield,  Malerkotla  Assembly  constituency  to  Ropav  Parliamentary  Constituency  to  make up  its loss  of  Kumkalan,
2.  Patiala  Parliamentary  Constituency  in the draft  proposals  has been  extended  on to Hhawaniirarh  Assembly  constituency  whereas,  much  closer  areas  of  Patiala  District  like Nabha  havt  been  given  over  to  Ropar  constituency.  In all  good  reason,  Bhawanigarh Assembly  Constituency  should  go to Sangrur  and Nabha  from  Parliamentary  constituency should  come  to  Patiala.  In order  to make  up the loss  of  Nabha  to Ropar  constituency, Dhuri  Assembly  constituency  from  Sangrur  should  go to  Ropar.
Summed  up, this  proposal  boils  down  to the following;
"Ropar  constituency  should  loss  Kumkalan  and Nabha  Assembly  constituency  and gain  in  their  lieu  Dhuri  and Malerkotla  Assembly  constituencies.  Patiala  Parliamentary constituency  should  cede  Bhawanigarh  and gain  Nabha.  Sangrur  Parliamentary  cons- tituency  for  its  loss  of  Dhuri  and  Malerkotla  should  get  Raikot  and  Bhawanigarh Assembly  constituencies."
Further  we are  firmly of  the opinion  that  Ropar  Parliamentary  constituency  should not  be thrown  'general'  but  should  remain  reserved  for the scheduled  castes  as  the scheduled  caste  population  in  this  constituency  is  much  higher  than  Sangrur.  We have separately  submitted  a  representation  to  this  effect.

It is also suggested tint P.Cs. 8, 10, 11 and 12 in Samrala constituency may be included in K ' H T II ciistituency and taken out from Samrala. These P.Cs. arc contiguous and nearer to Khanna. Scheduled caste Seats Samrala, Kutn Kalan, and Dakha seats have been declared reserved by the Commission Samrala and Kum Kalan are continuous and should, therefore, be staggered. It dots not seem proper to lomiiit a \uge block of population in two contiguous constituencies p.s rrserved rca's. One of them i.e. Samrala may be declared General.
