Answer:

The Delimitation commission or Boundary commission of India is a commission established by the Government of India under the provisions of the Delimitation Commission Act.
The main task of the commission is redrawing the boundaries of the various assembly and Lok Sabha constituencies based on a recent census.
The present delimitation of parliamentary constituencies within states, has been done on the basis of the 2001 census, under the provisions of Delimitation Act, 2002.
However, the Constitution of India was specifically amended (84th amendment) in 2002, not to have interstate delimitation of constituencies till 2026.
Thus, the present constituencies carved out on the basis of the 2001 census shall continue to be in operation till 2026 and later it can be done on the basis of population 2021.
