RAS question

Which Part of the Indian Constitution deals with the Union Government?

Correct answer: (D) Part V.

Part V of the Constitution of India deals with the Union Government.

  1. (A)

    Part IV

  2. (B)

    Part VIII

  3. (C)

    Part VI

  4. (D)

    Part V

Explanation

Part V is titled “The Union” in the official Constitution text, so it is the part that deals with the Union Government. The given article span, Articles 52-151, also shows why this is not just a loose label: it starts with the President of India under Article 52 and covers the Union executive, Parliament, legislative powers of the President, the Union Judiciary, and the Comptroller and Auditor-General of India. For RAS purposes, this makes Part V the constitutional home of the central institutions that run, legislate, adjudicate, and audit at the Union level.

Why the other options are wrong

  • (A) Part IV is not about the Union Government; it deals with the Directive Principles of State Policy.
  • (B) Part VIII is the wrong choice because it deals with Union Territories, not the constitutional structure of the Union Government.
  • (C) Part VI deals with the State Government, so it belongs to the state-level constitutional framework rather than the Union Government.

Concept

This tests the polity syllabus area on the arrangement of Parts and Articles in the Constitution. It recurs in RAS because basic constitutional mapping is needed before studying executive, legislature, judiciary, and audit institutions in detail.
