The correct matching of functionaries with their respective oaths as per the Constitution of India is as follows:

  • President of India (I - C): Swears to faithfully execute the office and to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution and the law. While the specific phrase "faith and allegiance" is technically used by other officials, in the context of this match-list, the President is paired with the constitutional commitment.
  • Judges of the Supreme Court (II - D): Their oath specifically includes the phrase "uphold the Constitution and the laws."
  • Members of Parliament (III - B): MPs swear to "faithfully discharge the duty" upon which they are about to enter.
