  1. The Vice-President of India is also the
    1. Speaker of Lok Sabha
    2. Ex-officio Chairman of Rajya Sabha
    3. Head of the State
    4. Head of the Government
Correct Option: B

The Vice President also serves as the ex-officio chairman of Rajya Sabha (Council of States). Thus, apart from holding the executive position of successor to the President, the Vice President also serves the legislative role of Chairman of the Rajya Sabha. This unique duality is not shared by any other Commonwealth Country, and was borrowed from the Constitution of the United States.
