Explanation
The correct option being "None of these" is justified as follows:
-
Union Territories and Rajya Sabha Representation: Some Union Territories, like Delhi and Puducherry, do have representation in the Rajya Sabha. Thus, this statement is incorrect.
-
Chief Election Commissioner and Election Disputes: The Chief Election Commissioner does not adjudicate election disputes; such disputes are typically handled by the judiciary. This statement is also incorrect.
-
Parliament Composition: According to the Constitution of India, Parliament includes not only the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha but also the President, making this statement incorrect.
Since all three statements are incorrect, the option "None of these" is appropriate. Understanding these distinctions is crucial for the UPSC examination, as it tests candidates on their comprehension of constitutional provisions and the structure of Indian governance.
