Question
The total number of members nominated by the President
to the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha is:Solution
As per Articles 80(1)(a) and 331, the President can nominate 2 members to Lok Sabha from Anglo-Indian community (now abolished), and according to Article 80, 12 members to Rajya Sabha, making a total of 14. However, earlier there were provisions for 2 Lok Sabha + 12 Rajya Sabha = 14. Note: The nomination of Anglo-Indian members to Lok Sabha was abolished by the 104th Amendment (2020). So now, the corrected number stands at 12.
