Cevap

The statement specifying that the Estimates Committee consists of 30 members elected solely from the Lok Sabha is the only correct statement.
The statement describing the Estimates Committee as having 30 members, all elected from the Lok Sabha, is accurate. Rajya Sabha members are not included in the Estimates Committee. Ministers are barred from all three financial committees, and the Chairman of the Estimates Committee is customarily chosen from the ruling party.
