    The instructor points to the 91st Amendment (2003) on the screen clearly. He explains that ministers are limited to 15% of the Lower House strength. He draws a circle on the screen to emphasize the 15% limit and writes "12" inside it, referring to the minimum number of ministers in a state. The slide also lists the Tarkunde Committee (1974), the Indrajit Gupta Committee (1998) for state funding of elections, and the Lily Thomas Case (2013) for disqualification of convicted MPs/MLAs.

This segment provides a concise overview of significant constitutional amendments and committee recommendations relevant to Indian politics. The core focus is on the 91st Amendment, which curbs the size of the council of ministers. The visual aid of the circle with "15%" and "12" reinforces the numerical constraints on ministerial strength. The inclusion of committees like Tarkunde and Indrajit Gupta, along with the Lily Thomas case, broadens the scope to electoral reforms and accountability.
