Lok Sabha numbering (time-sensitive): According to the timeframe implied by the options (up to the 16th Lok Sabha), which was the then “present” Lok Sabha? Assume the question refers to the period 2014–2019 when the 16th Lok Sabha was in office; current numbering may now be higher. Choose the correct option.

Important context
This is a time-bound GK item. The options stop at the 16^th; the then-present Lok Sabha during 2014–2019 was the 16th Lok Sabha. (Note: As of later years, the numbering has advanced, but the correct answer within the given choices and implied timeframe is 16th.)
