– While election disputes can be raised through an election petition to a designated authority (as per 243ZG(b)), challenging the delimitation law itself in court is barred.
– Reservations (B) as a concept might be challenged on constitutional grounds, but the allotment of seats based on delimitation and reservation is covered by the ouster in 243ZG(a).
– Disqualification for Panchayat membership (C) is dealt with by state law and election petitions, with court intervention limited but not a complete constitutional ouster of the law itself like delimitation.
– Disputes in cooperative societies (D) are governed by state law, often through tribunals or registrars, with limited but not fully ousted court jurisdiction, and it’s not a constitutional ouster.
