Assertion [A] : Attorney - General of India has the previlege of addressing both the houses of Parliament.
Reason [R] : Attorney - General enjoys the same previleges and immunities as the members of Parliament.

  • A.[A] is true but [R] is false
  • B.Both [A] and [R] are true; and [R] is the correct explanation of [A]
  • C.[A] is false, but [R] is true
  • D.Both [A] and [R] are true, but [R] is not the correct explanation of [A]

Answer: D

The key takes both statements as true but [R] as not the explanation. The Attorney General has the right to speak in both Houses (Article 88), and he enjoys the privileges of a member of Parliament.

The privilege to speak does not follow from the immunities, so [R] does not explain [A]. Option D is the key, and the booklet tick agrees.

Article 88 gives the Attorney General the right to speak in, and take part in the proceedings of, both Houses, and Article 105(4) extends the privileges to him. He cannot vote. The reason does not explain the right to address, so the final key says that [R] is not the correct explanation.
