01 What is the structural similarity between the roles of Prime Minister and Chief Minister?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. Both lead their respective Councils of Ministers
Explanation: The Prime Minister is the head of the Union Council of Ministers, while the Chief Minister is the head of the State Council of Ministers. Both coordinate ministerial work, guide policy, and act as the central leaders of the respective parliamentary executives. Their jurisdictions differ—Union and state—but their structural position is comparable. Neither office is the Chairperson of Rajya Sabha, a Supreme Court post, or the body that elects the President.
