The correct answer is (c) 3.
The Uttarakhand Legislative Assembly is the unicameral legislature of the Indian state of Uttarakhand. It consists of 70 members, elected from single-member constituencies. Of these, 3 seats are reserved for Scheduled Tribes.
The Scheduled Tribes are a group of indigenous peoples who are recognized by the Indian government as being socially and economically disadvantaged. They are entitled to certain affirmative action measures, including reserved seats in the legislature.
The 3 seats reserved for Scheduled Tribes in the Uttarakhand Legislative Assembly are distributed among the following constituencies:
- Chaubattakhal (ST)
- Didihat (ST)
- Tharali (ST)
The next election to the Uttarakhand Legislative Assembly is scheduled to be held in 2022.
