Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

The Lokpal has a Chairperson and no more than eight Members. Section 3 requires fifty per cent of the Members to be Judicial Members and not less than fifty per cent to come from the listed groups. A requirement of exactly fifty per cent judicial membership also satisfies the stated lower bound of at least fifty per cent, although the statutory wording is more precise.
