The division of each State into territorial constituencies for the Lok Sabha is done by the Delimitation Commission. This delimitation has been freezed till which year?
Detailed Explanation:
The 84th Constitutional Amendment Act, 2001 extended the freeze on delimitation of Lok Sabha constituencies until 2026, based on the 1971 Census. This was done to encourage states to implement population control measures without the risk of losing parliamentary representation.
The original freeze was imposed by the 42nd Amendment, 1976 until 2000, which was later extended by another 25 years through the 84th Amendment.
Therefore, delimitation remains frozen till 2026, making Option 2 the correct answer.
