Consider the following statements: 1. Union Territories are not represented in the Rajya Sabha. 2. It is within the purview of the Chief Election Commissioner to adjudicate the election disputes. 3. According to the Constitution of India, the Parliament consists of the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha only. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

Statement 1 is incorrect because Union Territories (UTs) are represented in the Rajya Sabha. Currently, eight members represent UTs, specifically Delhi, Puducherry, and Jammu & Kashmir [2]. Statement 2 is incorrect because the adjudication of election disputes is not within the purview of the Chief Election Commissioner; rather, according to the Representation of the People Act, 1951, such disputes are handled by the High Courts, with a right of appeal to the Supreme Court. Statement 3 is incorrect because, under Article 79 of the Constitution of India, the Parliament consists of the President and the two Houses (the Rajya Sabha and the Lok Sabha). The President is an integral part of the Parliament even though they are not a member of either House. Since all three statements are false, the correct option is 'None'.
