Example 1:
The Parliament of India decides to introduce a new law to ensure that all electoral rolls are updated every six months. This law mandates that the Election Commission of India must conduct a door-to-door verification process to ensure that all eligible voters are included and any deceased or ineligible voters are removed from the rolls. This action is taken under the power granted by Article 327, which allows Parliament to make provisions regarding the preparation of electoral rolls.
Example 2:
The Parliament enacts a law to change the boundaries of several parliamentary constituencies in a state to ensure fair representation based on the latest population data. This process, known as delimitation, is carried out to ensure that each constituency has approximately the same number of voters. This law is made under the authority of Article 327, which permits Parliament to make provisions regarding the delimitation of constituencies.
