List of constituencies of the Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly
Following is the list of the constituencies in the Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly prior to 2019. Following the reorganization of the state, seats changed to 90, and Ladakh became a separate Union Territory. In March 2020, a three-member Delimitation Commission was formed, chaired by retired Justice Ranjana Prakash Desai, for the delimitation of the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir.[1] The commission is expected to provide its recommendations within two years of formation (i.e. by April 2022).[2] [needs update]
