Question:

Which is NOT correct about India’s Prime Minister?

Options:

He is the head of the government.

He is the leader of the majority party in Lok Sabha.

He can be removed if a no confidence motion is passed by both the Houses of Parliament with 2/3rd majority.

He is appointed by the President of India.

Correct Answer:

He can be removed if a no confidence motion is passed by both the Houses of Parliament with 2/3rd majority.

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option 3 - He can be removed if a no confidence motion is passed by both the Houses of Parliament with 2/3rd majority.


In reality, the Prime Minister can be removed if a no-confidence motion is passed by the Lok Sabha (House of the People) only, not by both Houses of Parliament. Additionally, the Prime Minister can be removed by a simple majority vote, not by a 2/3rd majority vote.

Therefore, the correct statement should be: "He can be removed if a no-confidence motion is passed by the Lok Sabha with a simple majority."
