B Correct answer
Explanation

According to the principle of collective responsibility under Article 75, the Council of Ministers is collectively responsible to the Lok Sabha. If a no-confidence motion is passed against even a single minister, it is considered a loss of confidence in the entire government. Consequently, the entire Council of Ministers, including the Prime Minister, must resign.
