How does the division of Panchayat areas into territorial constituencies impact local governance and decision-making processes?
The division of Panchayat areas into territorial constituencies impacts local governance and decision-making processes by ensuring that the ratio between the population of each constituency and the number of seats allotted to it is, so far as practicable, the same throughout the Panchayat area. This helps maintain a fair representation of the population in the local government, allowing for more effective and democratic decision-making processes.
