The Finance Minister of Meghalaya presents the state budget in the:

Meghalaya Legislative Assembly
Parliament of India
Governor's Office
Supreme Court of India

The correct answer is: a) Meghalaya Legislative Assembly.

The Finance Minister of Meghalaya presents the state budget in the Meghalaya Legislative Assembly. The budget is a financial statement that outlines the government’s revenue and expenditure for the coming year. It is a key document that is used to plan and manage the state’s finances. The budget is presented in the Legislative Assembly by the Finance Minister, who is a member of the state government. The budget is then debated and voted on by the members of the Assembly. Once the budget is passed, it becomes law and the government is required to implement it.

The other options are incorrect because:

  • The Parliament of India is the legislative body of the Union of India. It is not responsible for the budget of any state.
  • The Governor’s Office is the office of the Governor of Meghalaya. The Governor is the head of state of Meghalaya and is appointed by the President of India. The Governor does not have any role in the preparation or presentation of the state budget.
  • The Supreme Court of India is the highest court in India. It is not responsible for the budget of any state.
