Discussion
Consider the following functions of Standing Committees of Parliament in India :
(i) To consider demand for grants.
(ii) To make a report on demand for grants to the Houses of Parliament.
(iii) To consider annual reports of Ministries and make reports there on.
(iv) To consider national basic short term policy documents presented to the houses.
Select the correct answer using codes given below :
Codes :
Answer: B
The Standing Committees (department-related committees) consider demands for grants and make reports on them to the Houses, and consider the annual reports of the Ministries and report on them (i, ii and iii). This gives Parliament a detailed look at departments' work.
Statement (iv) is wrong. They examine national basic long-term policy documents presented to the Houses, not short-term ones. So the codes that contain (iv) are wrong, and a code with only (i) and (ii) leaves out the annual reports.
