Question

When the Chairman of Rajya Sabha acts as President, the duties of the Chairman are performed by _____________.

• A. himself
• B. a newly elected Chairman
• C. the Deputy Chairman
• D. a member of Rajya Sabha deputed by the Chairman

Answer 1

The correct option is C the Deputy Chairman

The Vice-President of India is ex officio Chairman of Rajya Sabha. While the workplace of the Chairman is empty, or amid any period when he acts or discharges the function of President, the Deputy Chairman of Rajya Sabha plays out the obligations of the workplace of the Chairman. If the office of the Deputy Chairman is additionally empty, the President chooses an individual from the House to play out the obligations of the workplace.
