As of January 2020, the provision for the nomination of members from the Anglo-Indian community to the state legislative assemblies in India has been abolished. Previously, the governor could nominate two members from the Anglo-Indian community in states where they were considered a minority. However, this change reflects the government's decision to end the special representation for the community at both state and national levels.

As of my last knowledge update in October 2023, the two Anglo-Indians nominated by the President of India to the Lok Sabha are not specifically identified, as the practice of nominating Anglo-Indians to the Lok Sabha was abolished by the 104th Constitutional Amendment in January 2020. Before this change, the President could nominate two representatives from the Anglo-Indian community to the Lok Sabha, but there are currently no nominations for this community. Please check the latest resources for any updates or changes.
