[amp_mcq option1=”Speaker of Lok Sabha” option2=”Prime Minister of India” option3=”President of India” option4=”Chairman of Rajya Sabha” correct=”option1″]
The correct answer is: A. Speaker of Lok Sabha
The Public Accounts Committee (PAC) is a standing committee of the Parliament of India. It is a powerful committee that examines the accounts of the Union Government and its subordinate offices. The PAC is appointed by the Speaker of the Lok Sabha. The Chairman of the PAC is a member of the Lok Sabha and is elected by the members of the committee.
The PAC is responsible for examining the accounts of the Union Government and its subordinate offices. It also examines the reports of the Comptroller and Auditor General of India (CAG). The PAC submits its reports to the Parliament. The Parliament can take action on the recommendations of the PAC.
The PAC is a very important committee of the Parliament. It plays a vital role in ensuring accountability of the government to the people.
The other options are incorrect because:
- The Prime Minister of India does not appoint the Chairman of the PAC. The Chairman of the PAC is appointed by the Speaker of the Lok Sabha.
- The President of India does not appoint the Chairman of the PAC. The Chairman of the PAC is appointed by the Speaker of the Lok Sabha.
- The Chairman of Rajya Sabha does not appoint the Chairman of the PAC. The Chairman of the PAC is appointed by the Speaker of the Lok Sabha.
