Q146 (IAS/2004) Polity & Governance › Parliament › Parliamentary procedures Answer Verified

Which on of the following is the correct sequence in the descending order of precedence in the warrant of precedence?

Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: B
Explanation

The official Table of Precedence places Judges of the Supreme Court above the Deputy Chairman of the Rajya Sabha, with the Attorney General of India following them; Members of Parliament appear much lower in the Table. Regional government publications reproducing the President’s Table show Judges of the Supreme Court at a higher article number than the Deputy Chairman, and the Attorney General ranked after them, while Members of Parliament are listed far below (article numbers indicate relative seniority) [2]. Therefore the correct descending sequence is: Judges of the Supreme Court → Deputy Chairman of Rajya Sabha → Attorney General of India → Members of Parliament, which corresponds to option 2.
