Appointed by the Speaker.<\/p>\n<p>The Secretary General of the Lok Sabha is the Chief of its Secretariat and is appointed by the Speaker of the Lok Sabha. The Secretary General is responsible for the day-to-day functioning of the Lok Sabha and its Secretariat. He\/She is also responsible for the maintenance of order and decorum in the House.<\/p>\n<p>The Secretary General is a non-political post and is appointed on the basis of merit. He\/She is usually a senior Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officer. The Secretary General is assisted by a number of Deputy Secretaries, Under Secretaries, and Section Officers.<\/p>\n<p>The Secretary General is a key figure in the functioning of the Lok Sabha. He\/She plays a vital role in ensuring that the House functions smoothly and efficiently.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a brief explanation of each option:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Option A: Elected by the Lok Sabha. This is not the correct answer because the Secretary General is appointed by the Speaker of the Lok Sabha, not by the Lok Sabha itself.<\/li>\n<li>Option B: Elected by both Houses of Parliament.

This is the correct answer because the Secretary General is appointed by the Speaker of the Lok Sabha.<\/li>\n<li>Option D: Appointed by the President.
