Why is it said that the making of the Indian Constitution was unrepresentative? Does that make the Constitution unrepresentative? Give reasons for your answer.


Making of Indian Constitution was unrepresentative:

1. The representatives of the constituent Assembly were elected from restricted regions and not by universal suffrage.


2. The constituent assembly was not a sovereign body, as it was created by the proposals made by the British Government.


3. The assembly was dominated by the Congress party.


No, the above made criticism did not made the Constitution unconstitutional because it contains the ideas and aspiration of every section of people. The constitution provided the nation democracy with a head elected by the citizens.
