Question and options
The phrase 'bicameral legislature' means
- an elected legislature
- single assembly
- a legislature with two chambers
- parliamentary system of government
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C - a legislature with two chambers
A bicameral legislature has two chambers, a lower and an upper house; India's Parliament, with the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha, is bicameral. A single assembly is unicameral, and being elected or being part of a parliamentary system does not depend on the number of chambers.
