The House of the People, which is popularly known as Lok sabha, is the first  
and lower House of the union parliament. As is clear from its name, it  
represents the people of India. Its election is held directly by the people. This  
is a powerful, democratic and complete representative House and in this  
regard, its position is just like the British house of commons. Powers given to  
lok sabha are just like those given to british house of commons. Lok sabha's  
position is so strong that many scholars like to call it the real Parliament. But  
this is not a right comment. Still, it explains the significance and strong  
position that lok sabha holds in the Indian constitutional system. In 1950  
when the constitution was implemented, the number of Lok sabha members  
was fixed to 500. By the 7th amendment the number was increased to 520.  
Again by the 14th amendment, the number of members was increased to  
525. Out of these, 500 seats were for the people living in states and 25 seats  
were distributed among the centrally governed states. According to the 31st  
Amendment act, the maximum number of Lok sabha seats was fixed to 550  
but these days, its number is 545. Out of these, 525 are elected from the  
states and 20 from centrally governed states. According to article 331 of the  
Indian constitution, if the President is convinced that the Anglo-Indian  
community has not been given proper representation, he can nominate two  
persons of this community to the Lok Sabha. The number of members of Lok  
sabha has been fixed to 545 up to 2010. In Lok sabha also, seats for  
scheduled caste and scheduled tribes have ben reserved in certain  
proportion by the constitution. Any person of 18 years and above has the  
right to vote for the Lok sabha elections. The Berlin Wall, which had been  
built at the height of the Cold War and was its greatest symbol, was toppled  
by the people in
1989. This dramatic event was followed by an equally dramatic and historic  
chain of events that led to the collapse of the second world and the end of  
the Cold War. Germany, divided after the Second World War, was unified.  
One after another, the eight East European countries that were part of the  
Soviet bloc replaced their communist governments in response to mass  
demonstrations. The Soviet Union stood by as the Cold War began to end,  
not by military means but as a result of mass actions by ordinary men and  
women. Eventually the Soviet Union itself disintegrated. The causes and the  
consequences of the disintegration of the second world
