The document discusses visualizing politics through data. It summarizes that India is divided into 543 parliamentary constituencies, each electing one member of parliament. It also discusses how the number of candidates contesting elections has increased over time, though regulations in 1996 helped reduce it. The polling percentage decreases with larger electorates and population densities. The winning party in 2004 national elections was the Indian National Congress, which won 145 seats, followed closely by the Bharatiya Janata Party with 138 seats.

Saving Lives with Geospatial AI - Pycon Indonesia 2020Gramener
There’s a powerful way to fight dengue. Infect a mosquito with Wolbachia, release it in highly populated regions, and wait for it to infect all mosquitoes in the region.

2.
3. INDIA’S 543 CONSTITUENCIES
The country has been
divided into 543
Parliamentary
Constituencies, each of
which returns one MP to the
Lok Sabha.
4. FOUR COLOUR THEOREM
“Every map can be coloured
with just 4 colours, with no 2
adjacent areas having the
same colour.”
Proven by Appel & Haken in
1979 – using a computer to
solve the problem.
The Indian state map can
also be coloured with just
four colours.
5. DELIMITED BY POPULATION Electors 1000000 1500000
The shape of each
constituency aims to house
the same population.
The last delimitation exercise
was in 1976. The next
one, based on the 2001
census is under process.
This has led to wide
discrepancies in the size of
constituencies, with the
largest having over 33 lakh
electors, and the smallest
just 39,000.
Ideally, this map should have
had a uniform shade of blue.
6. POPULATION DENSITY Pop Density 50 500
If we treat the amount of
“blueness” as
population, then the right
colouring scheme to use is
population density.
This varies considerably too
– from 1 person per sq km
(Ladakh) to over 45,000
people per sq km (Calcutta
North West and Mumbai
South)
7. RESERVATION OF SEATS GEN SC ST
In a number of seats in the
Lok Sabha, the candidates
can only be from either one
of the scheduled castes or
scheduled tribes. The
number of these reserved
seats is meant to be
approximately in proportion
to the number of people from
scheduled castes or
scheduled tribes in each
state.
There are currently 79 seats
reserved for the scheduled
castes and 41 reserved for
the scheduled tribes in the
Lok Sabha.
8. NUMBER OF CANDIDATES Contestants 2 20
The number of candidates
contesting each election
steadily increased. In the
general election of 1952 the
average number of
candidates in each
constituency was 3.8; by
1991 it had risen to
16.3, and in 1996 stood at
25.6.
In August 1996, the size of
the deposit and the number
of people required to
nominate were increased.
The 1998 Lok Sabha
elections, the number of
candidates came down to an
average of 8.74 per
constituency. In 1999 Lok
Sabha elections, it was
8.6, and in 2004 it was 10.
9. POLLING PERCENTAGE Poll % 40% 90%
