Raipur, Madhya Pradesh Assembly constituency

Raipur was one of the original constituencies of the Madhya Pradesh Legislative Assembly, created for the first elections of 1951. Centred on the historic city of Raipur, it remained a general (unreserved) single-member seat until the nationwide delimitation undertaken on the basis of the 1971 Census. Under the Delimitation of Parliamentary and Assembly Constituencies Order 1976, Raipur Assembly constituency was dissolved with effect from the 1977 election cycle; its urban core was re-designated as Raipur Town while suburban and rural areas were redistributed among newly carved seats.
