Answer
The quorum of the Lok Sabha is one-tenth of the total membership of each house. This means that the House cannot conduct its proceedings and pass Bills and resolutions without the presence of at least one-tenth of its total membership.
When the quorum of a House is not met, the House cannot conduct its proceedings and pass Bills and resolutions. The Speaker may adjourn the House or suspend the meeting until there is a requisite quorum.
