Practice Questions

Q1. Consider the following statements about the 101st Constitutional Amendment and GST: 1. It conferred simultaneous power on Parliament and State Legislatures to make laws on goods and services tax. 2. Article 279A required the President to constitute the GST Council within thirty days of commencement. 3. The GST Council makes recommendations to the Union and States on goods and services that may be subjected to or exempted from GST. Which of the statements given above are correct?

A 1 and 2 only
B 2 and 3 only
C 1, 2 and 3
D 1 and 3 only Correct

Explanation

Statements 1 and 3 are correct. The 101st Amendment gave simultaneous GST law-making power and Article 279A(4) covers GST Council recommendations. Statement 2 is incorrect because the period is sixty days, not thirty days.

Q2. Consider the following statements: 1. The 105th Amendment restored the power of State governments to identify and maintain their own State Lists of SEBCs. 2. The 106th Constitutional Amendment provided 33% reservation for women in the Lok Sabha and State Legislative Assemblies. 3. The enforcement of the 106th Amendment was made immediate and independent of any fresh delimitation exercise. 4. The 105th Amendment converted the Article 342A central list into a list for State purposes only. Which of the statements given above are correct?

A 1 and 2 only Correct
B 2 and 3 only
C 1, 3 and 4 only
D 1, 2, 3 and 4

Explanation

Statements 1 and 2 are true as recorded in the verified corpus fact bank. Statement 3 is false because the corpus says enforcement of the 106th Amendment was contingent on a fresh delimitation exercise after the next census. Statement 4 is false because the 105th Amendment clarified the central list for central purposes while allowing States and Union Territories to maintain their own lists; it did not convert the central list into a State-only list.

Q3. Consider the following statements: 1. The 106th Amendment provided 33% reservation for women in the Lok Sabha and State Legislative Assemblies. 2. Its enforcement was made contingent on a fresh delimitation exercise after the next census. 3. Article 368 requires only a simple majority for all Constitution Amendment Bills. 4. The 105th Amendment clarified that the Central List under Article 342A is only for Central purposes. Which of the statements given above are correct?

A 1 and 2 only
B 2 and 4 only
C 1, 3 and 4 only
D 1, 2 and 4 only Correct

Explanation

Statements 1 and 2 are correct on the corpus fact bank's 106th Amendment entry. Statement 3 is incorrect because Article 368 requires a special majority, not a simple majority, for formal constitutional amendments under that article. Statement 4 is correct: the 105th Amendment made the Article 342A Central List a Central-Government list.

Q4. Consider the following statements: 1. The 71st Constitutional Amendment inserted Konkani in the Eighth Schedule. 2. The 71st Constitutional Amendment inserted Manipuri in the Eighth Schedule. 3. The 71st Constitutional Amendment inserted Bodo in the Eighth Schedule. Which of the statements given above are correct?

A 1 only
B 2 and 3 only
C 1, 2 and 3
D 1 and 2 only Correct

Explanation

Statements 1 and 2 are correct. The 71st Amendment inserted Konkani and Manipuri. Statement 3 is incorrect because the same Act inserted Nepali, not Bodo.

Q5. Consider the following statements about constitutional amendments in India: 1. The 42nd Constitutional Amendment substituted "SOVEREIGN SOCIALIST SECULAR DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC" in the Preamble. 2. The 44th Constitutional Amendment omitted Article 31 on compulsory acquisition of property. 3. The 86th Constitutional Amendment inserted Article 21A on free and compulsory education for children aged 6 to 14 years. Which of the statements given above are correct?

A 1 and 2 only
B 1 and 3 only
C 2 and 3 only
D 1, 2 and 3 Correct

Explanation

Statement 1 is correct: the 42nd Amendment changed the Preamble wording to include socialist and secular. Statement 2 is correct: Article 31 was omitted by the 44th Amendment. Statement 3 is correct: the 86th Amendment inserted Article 21A, requiring free and compulsory education for children aged 6 to 14.
