Who among the following can preside but cannot vote in one of the Houses of Parliament ?

ASpeaker of Lok Sabha

BDeputy Speaker of Lok Sabha

CVice President of India

DDeputy Chairman of Rajya Sabha

Answer:

C. Vice President of India

Read Explanation:

Vice President of India

  • The Vice President of India serves as the Chairman of the Rajya Sabha (Upper House of Parliament). In this role, the Vice President can preside over the proceedings of the Rajya Sabha but cannot vote during normal proceedings.

  • However, the Vice President can cast a deciding vote in case of a tie.

  • More details about this constitutional position:

  • The Vice President of India is the ex-officio Chairman of the Rajya Sabha

  • Unlike regular members of Parliament, the Chairman does not have an ordinary vote

  • The Vice President can only vote when there is a tie that needs to be broken (casting vote)

  • This arrangement ensures impartiality in conducting the proceedings of the Upper House

  • This is similar to the role of the Speaker in Lok Sabha, who also generally doesn't vote except in case of a tie
