    Solution

    The Public Accounts Committee (PAC) consists of 22 members in total: 15 elected from the Lok Sabha and 7 from the Rajya Sabha, all through proportional representation. Established in 1921 during British rule, the PAC examines government expenditure and the Comptroller and Auditor General's reports. The committee's chairperson is traditionally appointed from the opposition party by the Speaker of the Lok Sabha. Members serve for one year, and ministers are excluded from membership to maintain impartiality.
