Correct:
B
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 2. The Constitution (Ninety-Eighth Amendment) Bill was introduced to insert Chapter IV-A into Part V of the Constitution, providing for the establishment of a National Judicial Commission (NJC).
The primary objectives of this amendment were:
- To create a body chaired by the Chief Justice of India for the appointment and transfer of judges in the higher judiciary.
- To ensure a more transparent and participatory mechanism for judicial appointments, moving away from the "collegium system."
- To establish a framework for inquiring into cases of judicial misconduct.
Regarding other options:
- Option 1 refers to the 88th Amendment Act (2003).
- Option 3 refers to the 87th Amendment Act (2003).
- Option 4 relates to Article 3 of the Constitution, not the 98th Amendment.
Therefore, Option 2 is the only correct association for the 98th Amendment Bill.
