15 व्या लोकसभा निवडणुकीनुसार भारतात अनुसूचित जातीसाठी किती मतदार संघ राखीव आहेत ?

The correct answer is Option C (79).

Key Points:
• Before the Delimitation Commission of 2008 came into effect, the number of seats reserved for Scheduled Castes (SC) in the Lok Sabha was 79, and for Scheduled Tribes (ST) it was 41.
• During the 15th Lok Sabha elections (2009), the new delimitation increased SC reserved seats to 84 and ST to 47. However, the official MPSC answer key has marked '79' as the correct answer for this question, likely referencing the pre-delimitation constitutional figure commonly taught in older textbooks.
• As per the official final answer key, Option 3 is treated as correct.
• Key Takeaway: Pre-2008 delimitation, Lok Sabha reserved seats were 79 for SC and 41 for ST (which the answer key accepts).
