Solution

The correct option is B Vice President
The Vice President is not a member of Rajya Sabha but its ex-officio Chairman. He has no right to vote and is entitled to the salary and allowances in the capacity of the Rajya Sabha Chairman. Rajya Sabha can move bills, resolution and motion only after his consent.
