Detailed Solution

The given statement is False.
Initially, in 1950, 500 was the full membership of the House, but currently, it is 552 members. The house currently has 543 seats; a maximum of 543 elected MPs may fill those seats. In addition, the President of India nominated two additional Anglo-Indians between 1952 and 2020 on the recommendation of the Government of India, which was abolished in January 2020 by the 104th Constitutional Amendment Act of 2019.
Thus, the correct statement is that the Lok Sabha has a maximum membership of 552.
