Solution

The correct option is B X- 27
To become a member of the Lok Sabha, the minimum age is 25 years. To qualify for the Rajya Sabha, your age must be 30 years or more.

According to the case given in the question, if you are 24 years old you are not eligible to become a member of the Lok Sabha or the Rajya Sabha. If you are 27 years old you qualify for the Lok Sabha but not the Rajya Sabha. With the last two options, you would be eligible for both Houses.
