Discussion
Which of the statements given below is correct ?
Answer: A
The correct statement is The Attorney General of India is entitled to all the privileges that are available to a Member of Parliament.
Under Article 88 the Attorney General may speak in and take part in the proceedings of either House of Parliament, without a vote, and Article 105(4) gives the Attorney General the same powers, privileges and immunities as a Member of Parliament.
The other statements are wrong. The Attorney General is not a member of the Cabinet; a separate Law Minister represents legal matters there. The Attorney General is appointed by the President under Article 76, not by the Chief Justice, and must be qualified to be appointed a judge of the Supreme Court, not merely of a High Court.
