The correct answer is option 2: Estimates Committee. The Estimates Committee is a Standing Committee of Parliament that is responsible for examining the estimates of expenditure of the government. It is composed of members of both the Lok Sabha (Lower House of Parliament) and the Rajya Sabha (Upper House of Parliament). However, unlike other Standing Committees, the Estimates Committee does not include any Members of Parliament (MPs) from the Rajya Sabha. This means that the committee is solely composed of MPs from the Lok Sabha. The purpose of this arrangement may be to ensure that the committee is representative of the directly elected members of the lower house, who are accountable to the people.
