What does a candidate have to submit at the time of nomination?

Correct answer: Nomination paper

Correct answer: A, the nomination paper. At the nomination stage, a person formally submits the required nomination document to the appropriate election authority. The document records the person’s intention and relevant details for contesting the election, and the papers can then be examined according to the rules. A school certificate alone is not the general answer because nomination requires the prescribed election documents, not merely proof of schooling. Option B is unrelated: weather reports do not make a person eligible to contest. Option C is too narrow and misleading because education documents are not the complete nomination requirement. Option D is wrong because a ballot box is election equipment used for collecting votes, not something submitted by a candidate. Memory cue: the candidate submits papers; the election authority provides the voting arrangements.
