    CHAPTER 43 ELECTORAL STATISTICS 43.1 India is a constitutional democracy with a parliamentary system of government, and at the heart of the system is a commitment to hold regular, free and fair elections. These elections determine the composition of the Government, the membership of the two houses of parliament, the state and union territory legislative assemblies, and the Presidency and vice-presidency. Elections are conducted according to the constitutional provisions, supplemented by laws made by Parliament. The major laws are Representation of the People Act, 1950, which mainly deals with the preparation and revision of electoral rolls, the Representation of the People Act, 1951 which deals, in detail, with all aspects of conduct of elections and post election disputes. 43.2 The Election Commission of India is an autonomous, quasi-judiciary constitutional body of India. Its mission is to conduct free and fair elections in India. It was established on 25 January, 1950 under Article 324 of the Constitution of India. Since establishment of Election Commission of India, free and fair elections have been held at regular intervals as per the principles enshrined in the Constitution, Electoral Laws and System. The Constitution of India has vested in the Election Commission of India the superintendence, direction and control of the entire process for conduct of elections to Parliament and Legislature of every State and to the offices of President and Vice- President of India. The Election Commission is headed by the Chief Election Commissioner and other Election Commissioners. There was just one Chief Election Commissioner till October, 1989.

  • Electoral Competition and Politician Behavior in India∗
    Too Close to Call: Electoral Competition and Politician Behavior in India∗ Mahvish Shaukaty December 30, 2018 Click HERE for latest version. Abstract This paper presents empirical evidence on the causal effect of electoral competition on political selection and performance. Identifying the effect of competition is challenging due to reverse causality: politician actions before an election determine the competi- tiveness of a race. To overcome this challenge, I propose a shift-share instrument that exploits aggregate shifts in political parties' popularity over time. Unlike the tradi- tional shift-share, these aggregate shifts affect electoral competition across constituen- cies non-monotonically: a positive shift in a party's popularity decreases competition in the party's stronghold, and increases competition where voters prefer the opposi- tion. The instrument relies on this non-monotonicity for identification. Using data on Indian state elections, I find parties respond strategically to competition prior to an election by selecting higher quality candidates and reallocating resources to swing constituencies. The most striking result is in the negative selection of candidates with criminal backgrounds, who are significantly less likely to run in a competitive election. Competitive constituencies also experience a significant, though temporary, increase in night lights. Despite changes in campaign strategy prior to an election, however, I find no evidence that politicians elected in competitive constituencies improve economic outcomes once in office, either through selection or moral hazard. Together, these re- sults suggest that while electoral competition can lead politicians to take costly actions prior to an election, it does not necessarily result in improved governance. Keywords: Electoral competition, political selection, governance JEL Codes: D72, O17, O43 ∗I am extremely grateful to my advisors Abhijit Banerjee, Esther Duflo, and Ben Olken for their in- valuable guidance and support.
