NEW DELHI: Having more than one representation from a Ward in no manner negates the empowerment of weaker sections rather it increases their empowerment, the Supreme Court said Wednesday.

The court also said there is no prohibition or limitation in Constitution prohibiting the State Legislature from making a law providing for election of more than one member from one territorial constituency, i.e., Ward.
