Question : 4 [SSC Tax Asst 2008]

How many times the President of India can seek re-election to his post?

a) Any number of times

b) 3 times

c) Once

d) 2 times

Answer: (a)

The President of India can opt for re-election as many times as he wishes. Rajendra Prasad was the only president to have been elected twice for office.

There is neither any bar on re-election in the Indian Constitution nor does it mention the number of times the same person can be elected to the topmost office in India.

Historically, ruling party (majority in the Lok Sabha) nominees have been elected and run largely uncontested. Incumbents are permitted to stand for re-election, but unlike the president of the United States, who can be elected just twice, incumbents can be elected for any number of terms.

c) 1 only

d) Neither 1 nor 2

Answer: (c)

The parliament is not empowered to discuss the conduct of any judge of the Supreme Court or a High Court but the protection of the judge in this regard is restricted to his official duties and does not apply to his private conduct.
