Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 1 : Saudi Arabia

The correct answer is Saudi Arabia.

• The Majlis al-Shura, or Consultative Council, is a legislative body that advises the King on issues that are important to Saudi Arabia.
  • It is a modern version of a traditional Islamic concept – an accessible leader consulting with learned and experienced citizens – which has always been practised by Saudi rulers.
  • The Consultative Council currently consists of 150 members appointed by the King for a four-year renewable term.
    • Based on their experience, members are assigned to committees.
  • There are 12 committees that deal with human rights, education, culture, information, health, and social affairs, services and public utilities, foreign affairs, security, administration, Islamic affairs, economy and industry, and finance.
• Hence, option 1 is correct.
