Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: C
Explanation

The Estimates Committee is the largest parliamentary committee, consisting of 30 members. Significantly, all its members are elected annually from the Lok Sabha (Lower House) only; the Rajya Sabha (Upper House) has no representation in this committee. Its role is to examine the estimates included in the budget and suggest 'economies' in public expenditure.

  • Public Accounts Committee (PAC): Consists of 22 members, with 15 from the Lok Sabha and 7 from the Rajya Sabha.
  • Committee on Public Undertakings (COPU): Also consists of 22 members, with 15 from the Lok Sabha and 7 from the Rajya Sabha.

Since only the Estimates Committee excludes members from the Upper House, Option C (2 only) is the correct answer.
