Who appoints the Attorney General of India ?

  • A.The Prime Minister
  • B.The Lok Sabha
  • C.The President
  • D.None of the above

Answer: C

The Attorney General is appointed by the President.

Under Article 76, the President appoints a person qualified to be a Supreme Court judge as Attorney General for India. The Attorney General is the government's chief legal adviser and holds office during the pleasure of the President.

The appointment is made on the advice of the Union Cabinet led by the Prime Minister, but the formal appointing authority is the President. The Lok Sabha has no role in it.
