Readjustment of parliamentary constituencies is governed by Parliament with presidential effectivity and a census based transitional exception. Parliament shall determine the authority and manner for readjusting allocation of seats in the House of the People among States and for dividing States into territorial constituencies after each census; such readjustment does not affect representation until the dissolution of the existing House. The President may specify the date from which a readjustment takes effect, and until then elections may be held on pre existing constituencies. Until publication of relevant figures for the first census after 2026, it is not necessary to readjust allocations as based on the 1971 census or constituency divisions as based on the 2001 census.
