Solution

The correct option is B Nominated members of the Rajya Sabha and Lok Sabha
In Rajya Sabha 12 members are nominated by the President and in Lok Sabha not more than two members can be nominated by President. As these people are nominated by President, they cannot participate in elections of President to avoid biased decision.
