Prelims 2026 · Polity and Constitution · Question 58
Consider the following statements in respect of questions asked by the Members in the Parliament of India :<br/><br/>1. Unstarred questions are those to which a Member desires an oral answer in the House.<br/>2. Starred questions are those to which a Member desires a written answer.<br/>3. No supplementary question can be asked on an unstarred question.<br/><br/>Which one of the following conclusions based on the above statements is correct ?<br/>
Answer
There is only one correct statement.
Statements 1 and 2 are reversed. A starred question seeks an oral answer, while an unstarred question gets a written answer. Statement 3 is correct because no supplementary question is allowed on an unstarred question. So only one statement is correct.
