La loi électorale régit:
QuestionQuelles sont les élections régies par la loi électorale nationale?
Réponses a. Les élections nationales
Réponses The election of local bodies (except those in the Union Territories and cantonment areas) falls under the States per item 5, List II of VII Schedule. State laws concerning elections to local bodies must conform not only to the Constitution but also to the central laws in this respect. The central acts have ascendancy over the state acts in matters concerning representation of the people. Per article 328, a state law can only fill in the gap left by the central acts. It can neither contravene nor override the central laws so as to put the citizens to disadvantage.
