Which of the following is NOT a power/function of the Parliament of India?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → Examine the constitutionality of any law and declare it inapplicable
Testing a law against the Constitution and striking it down is judicial review, and it belongs to the Supreme Court and the High Courts, not to Parliament. It is one of the checks the judiciary holds over the legislature.
The other three are genuine parliamentary functions: members of both Houses form part of the electoral college for the President and elect the Vice-President, Parliament amends the Constitution under Article 368, and it alone can pass a motion for the removal of judges.
