-
The Speaker of the lok Sabha enjoys
-
- no right to vote in general circumstances
- the right to vote only in case of a tie
- the right to vote like other members of the House
- the right to vote only once during the term of the House
Correct Option: B
Normally, the Speaker does not take part in voting in the House. But in case of a tie, he exercises his right of casting vote. His casting vote would decide the issue. In such a case his vote would normally go in favour of the party to which he belongs. Further, when a resolution for the removal of the Speaker is put to vote in the House, he has the right to cast his vote.
