Which article of the Constitution of India deals with the power of the President to consult the Supreme Court?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

Article 143 gives the President power to consult the Supreme Court. Under its first clause, a question of law or fact of sufficient public importance may be referred for the Court to consider and report its opinion. This advisory jurisdiction differs from Article 141, which makes the law declared by the Court binding, and Article 142, which permits orders necessary for complete justice in pending cases.
