Additional Information Lok Sabha Representation India’s Lok Sabha has a total of 543 elected seats , distributed across states and Union Territories based on population. Seat allocation is determined by the Delimitation Commission , which ensures fair representation as per census data. States with larger populations or geographical areas typically have more seats, ensuring proportional representation. Union Territories Representation Union Territories like Delhi and Puducherry have fewer Lok Sabha seats compared to states due to their smaller populations. Delhi’s 7 seats reflect its importance as the national capital and its significant population density. State Representation Variability States like Uttar Pradesh have the highest number of Lok Sabha seats ( 80 ), reflecting their large population. Smaller states like Sikkim or Goa have only 1-2 seats , ensuring proportional representation.
