Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

"Nomination of members to the Rajya Sabha" is correct. The provision under Article 80 for the nomination of 12 members to the Rajya Sabha by the President for their special knowledge or practical experience in literature, science, art, and social service was adopted from the Irish Constitution. By contrast, the ideals of justice in the Preamble came from the Soviet Constitution, the joint sitting of both Houses from the Australian Constitution, and the election of Rajya Sabha members from the South African Constitution.
