Explanation

A committee is a group of people chosen to discuss, decide, or manage something. Committees are often formed in schools, companies, or governments to handle specific tasks, such as planning events, making rules, or solving problems. For example, a school might have a sports committee that organises games. The main purpose of a committee is teamwork, as members share ideas and make decisions together. It is not one person’s responsibility but a group effort. Committees exist everywhere: from classrooms to businesses to governments.
