Who can seek the advisory opinion of the Supreme Court of India ?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
The President may refer a qualifying question of law or fact to the Supreme Court under Article 143. This invokes the Court's advisory jurisdiction rather than an ordinary lawsuit by a private party. The Prime Minister, Law Minister and Attorney General do not hold this constitutional referral power in their own names.
