Electoral Process

To contest elections for the Lok Sabha, a candidate must fulfill the following constitutional requirements: - Must be a citizen of India. - Must be at least 25 years old. - Must be a registered voter in any parliamentary constituency.

Statement 1 is correct: The value of the vote of each MLA varies from State to State. The value of an MLA's vote is based on the population of their state relative to the number of MLAs in the state assembly. States with larger populations have a higher value per MLA vote. Statement 2 is incorrect: Both MPs (Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha) have the same value for their vote in the presidential election. Hence, the correct answer is option (c) 1 only.
