	I am pretty sure India does not use Proportional Representation. I recall mentioning Duverger's Law to Matthew Shugart when I introduced myself to him while he was at UCSD, and he mentioned India as a counterexample. I believe its multi-party system is better explained by a larger assembly size per Shugart and Taagapera's Seat Product Model. ChatGPT also says India does not use ProRep but some states within it, Kerala and Tamil Nadu, use STV. It names Germany as the largest country using ProRep, which seems right to me. --[[User:PerfectlyGoodInk\|PerfectlyGoodInk]] ([[User talk:PerfectlyGoodInk\|talk]]) 19:30, 2 March 2023 (UTC)		I am pretty sure India does not use Proportional Representation.
