Answer:

The Lok Sabha or House of the People is the lower house of India's bicameral Parliament, with the upper house being the Rajya Sabha. Members of the Lok Sabha are elected by adult universal suffrage and a first-past-the-post system to represent their respective constituencies, and they hold their seats for five years or until the body is dissolved by the President on the advice of the council of ministers. The house meets in the Lok Sabha Chambers of the Sansad Bhavan in New Delhi.

The maximum strength of the House allotted by the Constitution of India is 552. Currently, the house has 545 seats which is made up by the election of up to 543 elected members and at a maximum, 2 nominated members of the Anglo-Indian Community by the President of India. A total of 131 seats (24.03%) are reserved for representatives of Scheduled Castes (84) and Scheduled Tribes (47). The quorum for the House is 10% of the total membership. The Lok Sabha, unless sooner dissolved, continues to operate for five years from the date appointed for its first meeting. However, while a proclamation of emergency is in operation, this period may be extended by Parliament by law.[4][5]

An exercise to redraw Lok Sabha constituencies' boundaries is carried out by the Boundary Delimitation Commission of India every decade based on the Indian census, last of which was conducted in 2011.[6] This exercise earlier also included redistribution of seats among states based on demographic changes but that provision of the mandate of the commission was suspended in 1976 following a constitutional amendment to incentivise the family planning programme which was being implemented.[7] The 17th Lok .

Sabha was elected in May 2019 and is the latest to date.[8]

The Lok Sabha has its own television channel, Lok Sabha TV, headquartered within the premises of Parliament.[9]

Answer:

The Lok Sabha is the Lower House of the Union Parliament. It consists of the elected representatives of the people. The present Lok Sabha consists of 545 members, out of which 543 are elected and 2 are nominated by the President of India. The nominated members belong to the Anglo-Indian community. For the purpose of election, the whole country is divided into constituencies. The number of constituencies in each state depends on its population. The votes are cast through a secret ballot, i.e., nobody else knows for whom he has voted. The candidate who gets the maximum number of votes is declared elected and becomes a member of the parliament. The normal term of the Lok Sabha is five years, but it can extend for another year in case of an emergency. It can also be dissolved before its full term, by the President on the request of Prime Minister or when the Prime Minister losses the confidence of the Lok Sabha. The quorum of a sitting Lok Sabha is one-tenth of its total strength. It cannot hold a session without one-tenth of its members present. A meeting without the required member is considered illegal. After his/her election as an M.P., every member has to take an oath of loyalty to the Constitution of India. The oath is administered by the President. The speaker and a deputy speaker are elected. The speaker conducts the proceedings of the House. The first hour is the ‘question hour’ where the members put up question before the Parliament which are related to important matters. Thereafter other matters are taken up.
