Correct:
B
Explanation
The Committee on Welfare of Other Backward Classes consists of 30 members, with 20 members elected from the Lok Sabha and 10 from the Rajya Sabha. The Chairperson of this committee is appointed by the Speaker of the Lok Sabha from among the members of the Committee.
- Option A: The Committee on Welfare of SCs and STs has 30 members (20 from LS and 10 from RS). Thus, Lok Sabha elects more members.
- Option C: The Committee on Empowerment of Women also follows the 2:1 ratio, consisting of 20 members from Lok Sabha and 10 from Rajya Sabha.
- Option D: The Public Accounts Committee (PAC) consists of 22 members (15 from LS and 7 from RS).
In almost all joint parliamentary committees in India, the Lok Sabha has double the representation of the Rajya Sabha.
