What is the role of the Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha?

Congress MP Rahul Gandhi has assumed the role of the Leader of the Opposition (LoP) in the lower House of the Parliament. This position lay vacant for a decade since no singular party had numbers equalling a tenth of the total strength of the Lok Sabha which has conventionally been the requirement to lay claim to the post. Since the Opposition in the Indian Parliament comprises multiple parties with divergent ideologies and agendas, the role of the LoP is fraught with challenges. So how is a LoP appointed and what are the responsibilities accompanying this crucial constitutional post?
