Many images of 15 Assembly were created. Posting here all of them for reference. Please help to check which is accurate and which is wrong. Only accurate images should be kept in the article. Venkat TL (talk) 10:59, 26 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
There are news articles that Baran-Atru MLA Pana Chand Meghwal resigned. But no confirmation if this was effected. Possibly the CM did not accept the resignation. The official site, does not show any vacant seat. https://assembly.rajasthan.gov.in/MemberPartyPosition.aspx
@Venkat TL Some official assembly pages show outdated info as they are not usually updated for months. If reliable sources have claimed that an MLA has resigned (as in the current case), then it should be marked as a vacant seat. Dhruv edits (talk) 00:16, 26 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Dhruv edits No. The reliable source is only reporting that this MLA has intentions to resign and might have started the procedure. Not that the resignation has been accepted or complete. If so, by polls would be called and the seat will be mentioned as vacant. None of these info is available. So it will be unsourced to mark it as vacant. @MPGuy2824 your opinion? Venkat TL (talk) 10:00, 26 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Why is politics in India so complicated? You can submit resignation papers, but you may not be allowed to resign by the Speaker/Party leader, aargh.
I don't think there is a good option here. Dhruv is right: the assembly pages will probably not be updated for every resignation. In this case, i'd guess they'd update only when they are sure of who is the CM and the final party position after all the in-fighting is over. For now, i'm leaning towards showing "vacant" with a good footnote explaining the situation. Also Venkat, polls aren't always called for by the ECI, immediately after a seat vacancy. In this case, they'd probably announce it with the HP elections since they are so close by. -MPGuy2824 (talk) -MPGuy2824 (talk) 03:25, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
When we write VACANT in MLA table, it means we are claiming The resignation has been accepted by Speaker and CM. We have no evidence of this. Hence Vacant is unsourced. We can write in remark, Pana Chand submitted his resignation in August 2022. with the source, without calling it vacant. @Dhruv edits do you agree? If you dont then we will need a reference that says, it is vacant. Venkat TL (talk) 09:41, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Quite odd that the news article says "lone cpim member". I think it is ok for now, until we get info about the other cpim mla, or the central party leadership dictates to both of them who to support. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 03:12, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Chennai Super Kings Lover There is no "Other" bench in the Assembly. There are Treasury (Government) benches and everyone else is in Opposition bench. Also there is no reliable source calling them Other. Why are you adding them in Other? Venkat TL (talk) 15:49, 26 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
