Even if a minister is a Rajya Sabha member, to which House is the Council of Ministers collectively responsible?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Lok Sabha

Correct answer: A. In India's parliamentary system, the Council of Ministers is collectively responsible to the Lok Sabha. This means that the ministry must work as a team and must retain the confidence of the directly elected House. If the Lok Sabha passes a no-confidence motion, the Council of Ministers as a whole must resign. A person may become a minister while being a member of Rajya Sabha, but that individual membership does not change the rule of collective responsibility. B is wrong because Rajya Sabha does not decide whether the ministry continues in office through a no-confidence vote. C is wrong because the President appoints ministers on advice but is not the House to which the ministry is collectively responsible. D is wrong because the Supreme Court does not supervise the ministry politically. Memory cue: individual membership may be in either House, but collective responsibility is to Lok Sabha.
