The members of the Railway Convention Committee are nominated by which of the following authorities of India?
The Speaker of the Lok Sabha
The Railway Convention Committee is a joint parliamentary committee that reviews the financial relationship between the general revenues and the railways (notably the rate of dividend the railways pay to general revenues).
Like other parliamentary committees, its members are drawn from both Houses, and the Speaker of the Lok Sabha nominates the members of this committee, since the Lok Sabha is the House that primarily controls financial matters.
The Chairman of the Rajya Sabha, the President, and the Prime Minister do not nominate its members.
Hence, the members of the Railway Convention Committee are nominated by the Speaker of the Lok Sabha.
