Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

As of September 2013, the National Food Security Bill had just been passed by both Houses of Parliament (Lok Sabha on 26 August and Rajya Sabha on 2 September 2013) and became the National Food Security Act, 2013. The Women's Reservation Bill had then been passed only by the Rajya Sabha (2010) and lapsed; Parliament passed it much later, in September 2023, as the Constitution (106th Amendment) Act. The civil-society 'Jan Lokpal Bill' was never passed.
