Q1. Which Article of the Constitution of India deals with the duties of the Chief Minister of a State?
Explanation
Article 167 sets out the duties of the Chief Minister regarding furnishing information to the Governor, communicating decisions of the Council of Ministers, and placing matters before the Council when required. Article 162 concerns the extent of the executive power of a State, so it is broader and not about the Chief Minister’s duties. Article 164 deals with the appointment and tenure of ministers, including collective responsibility. Article 165 concerns the Advocate General for the State. Therefore, the article specifically asked in the question is Article 167.
