[amp_mcq option1=”One fifth of total members” option2=”One sixth of total members” option3=”One seventh of total members” option4=”One tenth of total members” correct=”option1″]
The correct answer is: A. One fifth of total members.
The Constitution of India, Article 108, states that “Not less than one-tenth of the total number of members of either House shall form a quorum to transact business, but a smaller number may adjourn from day to day.”
This means that for a meeting of either the Lok Sabha or the Rajya Sabha to be valid, at least one-tenth of the total number of members must be present.
Option B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not meet the minimum quorum requirement set out in the Constitution.
