Solution

The correct option is B Speaker of the Lok Sabha
Speaker of the Lok Sabha appoints the chairman of all the parliamentary committees of the Lok Sabha and supervises their functioning. The office of the Speaker is more than merely a presiding officer of the Lok Sabha. Speaker of Lok Sabha is placed at sixth rank along with the CJI. This means his rank is higher than all the cabinet ministers except the PM and deputy PM if any.
