Lucknow: A delegation of Zakat Foundation of India (ZFI) led by its President, Dr Syed Zafar Mahmood had a long but frank discussion in Lucknow with the Bahujan Samaj Party General Secretary Satish Mishra. Through a PowerPoint presentation Dr Mahmood explained that the basic cause of denial of justice to Muslims is their abject under-representation in the Lok Sabha and state assemblies. He said that as per census Muslims constitute 13.4% at the national level. Hence in a Lok Sabha of 542 members there should be 73 Muslims. But since 1952 till date in all the Lok Sabhas the average number of Muslims has been less than 27. twocircles.net/2014apr09/bsp_promises_delimitation_commission_after_polls_dereserve_predominantly_muslim#.U0WzA6iSw4W
