Which one of the following regarding the procedure and conduct of business in the Parliament is not correct?

Result
Your answer:  ·  Correct: A
Explanation

The Parliament of India operates under specific rules of procedure and conduct of business [1]. Under the federal structure, matters primarily concerning the administration of a State (State List subjects) are generally not discussed in Parliament unless they involve a breakdown of constitutional machinery or specific Union interests. While Parliament is the 'voice of the people' and can discuss issues of national importance , it typically avoids interfering in the routine law and order of states. However, issues involving the use of police force against Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Option 2) or violent disturbances in Union-controlled undertakings (Option 3) are considered matters of national concern or under Union jurisdiction. Similarly, industrial labor demands (Option 4) fall under the Concurrent List, allowing parliamentary discussion. Therefore, the general discussion of 'State matters' without a specific federal nexus is not a standard procedure for the conduct of business in Parliament.
