<h1>Amendment to Article 332 Ensures Adequate Representation for Scheduled Tribes in Legislative Assemblies of Northeastern States</h1> The Constitution (57th Amendment) Act, 1987 aims to amend Article 332 to ensure adequate representation for Scheduled Tribes in the Legislative Assemblies of Nagaland, Meghalaya, Mizoram, and Arunachal Pradesh. This amendment follows the Constitution (51st Amendment) Act, 1984, which reserved seats for Scheduled Tribes but requires further action to determine the exact number of reserved seats. The amendment proposes a temporary provision until the first census after 2000, allowing for a transition to normal arrangements. It stipulates that if all seats are held by Scheduled Tribes, all but one will be reserved for them, ensuring proportional representation.
