Which of the following statements about the Speaker of the Lok Sabha is NOT correct?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

The Speaker of the Lok Sabha is not required to resign from party membership on election, so "The Speaker of the Lok Sabha must resign from the membership of his party after being elected as a Speaker" is the incorrect statement, whereas the casting vote in a tie (Article 100) and the decision whether a Bill is a Money Bill (Article 110) are genuine powers, and in the Table of Precedence the Speaker ranks above Cabinet Ministers.
