The members of the Constitution Assembly were
Directly elected by the people
Incorrect AnswerNominated by the British Government, Congress and Muslim League.
Incorrect AnswerPartly elected and partly nominated
Correct AnswerElected from the four constituents- Hindu, Muslims, Sikhs and Christains.
Incorrect AnswerExplanation:
3rd option is correct. The total strength of the Constituent Assembly was to be 389. Of these, 296 seats were to be allotted to British India and 93 seats to the Princely States. Out of 296 seats allotted to the British India, 292 members were to be drawn from the eleven governors’ provinces and four from the four chief commissioners’ provinces, one from each.
The representatives of princely states were to be nominated by the heads of the princely states.
It is thus clear that the Constituent Assembly was to be a partly elected and partly nominated body.
