Function details: After a change request on the talk page of {{Infobox Indian constituency}}, six parameters were replaced, and two parameters were removed from the template. These deprecated parameters still exist in almost 1128 pages after six months of the change. This bot run will replace the outdated six parameters with the relevant new ones and and remove two invalid parameters. It involves a simple find with regex and replacement inside the template calls, for e.g. |ls_constituency= → |loksabha_cons =
