Article 328 of CoI : Article 328: Power of Legislature of a State to make provision with respect to elections to such Legislature.

Explanation using Example

Example 1:

The state of Maharashtra decides to implement a new law to ensure that all electoral rolls are updated every six months. This law includes provisions for door-to-door verification of voters' details and the use of digital technology to maintain accurate records. Since Parliament has not made any specific provision regarding the frequency of updating electoral rolls, Maharashtra's Legislature exercises its power under Article 328 to enact this law. This helps in maintaining an up-to-date and accurate list of eligible voters for state elections.

Example 2:

In the state of Tamil Nadu, the Legislature passes a law that mandates the use of electronic voting machines (EVMs) with Voter Verified Paper Audit Trail (VVPAT) for all state legislative elections. This law also includes detailed procedures for the storage, maintenance, and security of these machines. Since there is no conflicting provision made by Parliament regarding the use of EVMs with VVPAT in state elections, Tamil Nadu's Legislature uses its authority under Article 328 to ensure the integrity and transparency of the electoral process in the state.
