Solution

The correct option is D No such limit
No minimum percentage of seats is needed by a party to act as the opposition party in the legislature. Official Opposition is a term used in India to designate the political party which has secured the largest number of seats in the Lower House of parliament (Lok Sabha) but is not a part of the ruling party or coalition. This party forms the opposition party in the Parliament.
