Indian Jain

B.

C.

Anglo Indian

D.

Parsi

Correct option is C

The correct answer is (c) Anglo-Indian.
· The President of India has the authority to nominate two members of the Anglo-Indian community to the Lok Sabha if he or she believes that the community is not adequately represented.
· This provision is outlined in Article 331 of the Indian Constitution.
· However, this practice was discontinued by the 104th Constitutional Amendment Act, 2019, which removed the provision for nominating Anglo-Indian members to the Lok Sabha and Legislative Assemblies.
Additional Information:
· The practice of nominating Anglo-Indian members was introduced to ensure the representation of a small community that may not have sufficient numbers to elect representatives on their own.
· The 104th Amendment Act, 2019, which came into effect in January 2020, removed this provision as part of the government's efforts to streamline the legislative process and representation.
