There is no such provision for the Deputy Speaker in Article 94. Therefore, the Deputy Speaker&#8217;s term as a member of the House ends with dissolution, and consequently, their role as Deputy Speaker also effectively ends, although the office itself might be considered vacant rather than &#8216;held over&#8217;. Statement 1 is fundamentally correct because dissolution ends their term as MPs. Statement 3 highlights the continuity provision for the Speaker, which is correct, but frames it incorrectly in comparison to the Deputy Speaker in the context of vacating the *office* upon dissolution.<br \/>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Which of the following statements are correct with regard to Speaker\/Deputy Speaker, Lok Sabha ? 1.
