The administrative expenses of a High Court including all salaries, allowances and pensions payable to or in respect of the officers and servants of the court shall be charged upon:

  • A.the Consolidated Fund of India
  • B.the Consolidated Fund of the State
  • C.the Public Account of India
  • D.the Reserve Bank of India

Answer: B

The administrative expenses of a High Court, including the salaries, allowances and pensions of its officers and servants, are charged on the Consolidated Fund of the State, under Article 229(3) of the Constitution. The salaries of High Court judges themselves are charged under Article 202 on the State fund as well.

The Consolidated Fund of India bears the expenses of the Supreme Court, and not those of High Courts. The Public Account and the Reserve Bank are not the fund from which these are paid.
