As per the order issued by the Delimitation Commission in 2008, ______ seats are reserved for Scheduled Castes in the Lok Sabha.
84
The correct answer is 84.
The number of Lok Sabha seats allocated to each state was fixed based on the 1971 census population until the first delimitation exercise after 2026, as per the 84th Amendment Act, 2001. However, the reservation of seats for SCs and STs within a state's allocated seats is adjusted based on the latest available census data (2001 data for the 2008 order). The reservation of seats in the Lok Sabha and State Legislative Assemblies aims to ensure adequate representation for Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes, enabling them to participate effectively in the democratic process.
