Parliamentary Question Rules
Question
Consider the following statements in respect of questions asked by the Members in the Parliament of India:
Which one of the following conclusions based on the above statements is correct? (a) All the three statements are correct . (b) There are two correct statements, that include statement 2 . (c) There is only one correct statement . (d) There is no correct statement.
Options
All the three statements are correct.
There are two correct statements, that include statement 2.
There is only one correct statement.
There is no correct statement.
Explanation
The correct answer is (c), meaning only statement 3 is correct. Because unstarred questions receive written replies, there is no opportunity to ask immediate follow-up or supplementary questions on the floor, validating statement 3. Statements 1 and 2 are incorrect because their definitions are swapped: starred questions require an oral response on the floor, while unstarred questions receive a written reply.
