The President is indirectly elected by the people through elected members of the Parliament of India (Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha) as well as of the state legislatures (Vidhan Sabhas and Vidhan Parishads) and serves for a term of five years.

b) a, b and c

c) b and d

d) a, b, c and d

Answer: (a)

Unlike censure motion, a no-confidence motion does not require any specific ground.

Once admitted in the House, it takes precedence over all the pending business of the House. No conditions of admissibility of a motion of no-confidence are laid down in the Rules, except that once a decision, after discussion, is taken by the House on such a motion, no motion raising an identical matter can be moved in the same session.

In view of the express constitutional provision regarding collective responsibility of the Council of Ministers to the Lok Sabha, a motion expressing want of confidence in an individual Minister is out of order; under the Rules, only a motion expressing want of confidence in the Council of Ministers as a body is admissible.
