Solution

The correct option is B 84; 47
The Lok Sabha has 84 seats reserved for the Scheduled Castes and 47 seats for the Scheduled Tribes. The number of seats allotted to them is based on the percentage of the total population they make up in the country. This ensures that the idea of the reservation does not deny representation to the other social groups in the country.
