Correct:
C
Explanation
According to Article 66(1) of the Constitution of India, the Vice President is elected by an electoral college consisting of the members of both Houses of Parliament. This includes both elected and nominated members of the Rajya Sabha and the Lok Sabha.
- Option A and B: These are incorrect because the electoral college is not restricted to just one House; it comprises both.
- Option D: This is incorrect because, unlike the Presidential election, members of the State Legislative Assemblies (MLAs) do not participate in the election of the Vice President.
The election is conducted through a system of proportional representation by means of a single transferable vote, and the voting is done by secret ballot.
