A Correct answer
Explanation

The provisional parliament (Constituent Assembly) was NOT a directly elected body. Its members were indirectly elected by members of provincial legislatures, who were themselves elected under limited franchise. This was a key distinction from the later Parliament established under the Constitution, which is directly elected by universal adult franchise.
