Correct Answer: 1 and 2 only. Statement 1 “Member of the Cabinet are Members of the Parliament “ is correct as Cabinet consists of Prime Minister and Ministers who virtually are Members of House of Commons. Statement 2 “Ministers hold the office till they enjoy confidence in the Parliament” is correct as Ministers will hold the office. Statement 3 “Cabinet is headed by the Head of the State” is incorrect as President is the head of the state while Prime Minister is head of government. As statement 3 is incorrect, this eliminates B, C and D options, hence option A is correct.
