If a member has a grievance related to a particular grant in the Budget, which kind of Cut Motion can he/she raise?

• A. Motion Cut
• B. Budget Cut
• C. Token Cut
• D. Expenditure Cut

Answer 1

The correct option is C Token Cut

The members of the Lok Sabha have the power to pass a 'Cut Motion', a veto against an allocation in the Budget. 'Token Cut' is one such motion. If a member has a grievance related to a particular grant in the Budget, they will raise a Token Cut. The Cut seeks to reduce the grant by 100 rupees. Through this, a member can air his grievance.
