This peculiar  situation has arisen because the voters of the eight assembly constituencies  are not included as Scheduled Tribes whereas the Outer parliamentary Constituency  in which they are included i.e. Outer Manipur Parliamentary Constituency  is a reserved Constituency for STs. <\/p>\n<p>I feel that this is an injustice to these people as they are not  able to exercise their fundamental right for the past 50 years since 1952  and should this situation continue, they will remain in the same position  for the next 25 years as Parliament has frozen delimitation till 2026.\n<\/p>\n<p>The best way to protect the fundamental rights of several lakh voters  of these 8 (eight) Assembly Constituencies is to add them to the 32 general  Assembly Constituencies of the Inner Manipur Parliamentary Constituency  which would bring the total voters to approximately 12 lakhs of the 40  Assembly Constituencies. On the other hand, the remaining 20 reserved assembly  constituencies of the Outer Manipur Constituency still would continue to  have a reasonable number of voters as compared to other reserved Parliamentary  Constituencies of the North East and the country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lok Sabha Debates Need For Delimitation Of Outer Manipur Parliamentary Constituency &#8211; &#8230; on 28 November, 2001 Title: Need for delimitation of Outer Manipur Parliamentary Constituency &#8211; Laid.
