Answer
Large multi-member constituencies are formed.
Many members/representatives are elected from each constituency.
Each political party submits a list of as many candidates as are to be elected from
political constituency.
The voters vote for the list, which are indivisible to be elected.
Each candidate has to secure minimum votes fixed by the quota to be obtained by
dividing the total number of votes polled to the party by the quota.
The same number of candidates enumerated in the party list from top are declared
successful.
