Article 22 of the Indian Constitution allows preventive detention but requires that no person be detained beyond 3 months without an Advisory Board approval.

The Constitution of India does not mention the post of the Deputy Prime Minister.

Under Article 201 of the Indian Constitution, the President can withhold assent to any bill reserved for his consideration by a State Governor. This is a absolute veto, not suspensive. The President is not bound to give assent and the bill then ends. Option A incorrectly states only suspensive veto; Option B is incomplete.

The chronological order is: Assam (created as a state in 1963, earlier existed as a province), Nagaland (1963), Goa (1987), Mizoram (1987). This matches Option C. Note: Goa was a Union Territory from 1961-1987 and became a state in 1987; Mizoram followed the same year.

Minerva Mills v. Union of India (1980) reaffirmed the Keshavananda Bharati (1973) case judgment on the basic structure doctrine.

The Keshavananda Bharati case (1973) established that Parliament's power under Article 368 to amend the Constitution is not unlimited and cannot alter the 'basic structure' or essential features of the Constitution. This is correct. Option A incorrectly claims Parliament is supreme (it is subject to basic structure); Option B misstates the scope.

BG Kher served as the Chairman of the first Official Language Commission constituted in 1955. The commission was formed to examine the question of official language and recommend language policy for the Union. KM Munshi was involved in language-related constitutional discussions but was not the chairman.

The 44th Constitutional Amendment (1978) removed the right to property from Part III (Fundamental Rights) and reclassified it as a legal right under Article 300A. This was during Emergency period aftermath. 1976 was when the 42nd Amendment was passed.

Finance Commission (Article 280) is a constitutional body that recommends financial relations between Union and states, but is NOT a committee of Parliament. The three Financial Committees of Parliament are: Public Accounts Committee, Estimates Committee, and Committee on Public Undertakings - all composed of MPs and examine executive expenditure.

The Minto-Morley Reforms (1909) primarily aimed at extending the size and functions of Provincial Assemblies and introducing separate electorates. It did NOT establish diarchy (that came with Montagu-Chelmsford Reforms 1919), nor did it abolish the Secretary of State or significantly empower local governments.

The Government of India Act 1935 was the longest and most comprehensive act, which actually envisaged and provided for a federal structure of government with a federal court, though the provincial part was implemented. The 1909 Act (Morley-Minto) introduced limited elections, while 1919 Act (Montagu-Chelmsford) introduced diarchy.

21^st Amendment was related to Schedule 8. It included Sindhi as an official language on 10 April, 1967.

When the President returns a bill (other than a Money Bill) for reconsideration, Parliament can repass it with an ordinary majority. The President must then give assent (Article 111). No special two-thirds majority or joint sitting is required at this stage. For ordinary bills, the President cannot veto - only suspend reconsideration once.

Minsters are appointed by the president on recommendation of the Prime Minister and they are removed either by resigning or by dissolution of govt. or by PM.

Under Article 368, certain constitutional amendments (those affecting federal structure or requiring ratification) need ratification by at least half of the state legislatures. This means no less than half the states must approve. The required majority in Parliament for such amendments is two-thirds, but the threshold for states is simply 'half'.

The August Offer 1940 (by Viceroy Linlithgow) was the first time the British government indirectly conceded the nationalist demand for a Constituent Assembly, though with reservations about post-war settlement and dominion status. The Cripps Proposals 1942 explicitly offered a constituent assembly post-war, Cabinet Mission 1946 provided the framework, and the 1935 Act was the existing constitution.

The Constituent Assembly held its first meeting on December 9, 1946, not 1947. The other two dates are correct: November 26, 1949 is when the Constitution was adopted, and January 26, 1950 is when it came into effect. Therefore, option A is the wrongly matched pair.
