Q133 (NDA-I/2026) Polity & Governance › Union Executive

Consider the following offices :
I. The Vice President of India
II. The Governors within their respective States
III. The Prime Minister of India
IV. The Speaker of the Lok Sabha
Which one of the following options represents the correct order of these offices for ceremonial occasions in the Table of Precedence as approved by the President of India?

Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: B

Explanation

The Table of Precedence is a protocol list issued by the President's Secretariat and maintained by the Ministry of Home Affairs to determine the rank of various functionaries for ceremonial occasions. According to the official order:

  • Rank 2: The Vice President of India (I)
  • Rank 3: The Prime Minister of India (III)
  • Rank 4: Governors of States within their respective States (II)
  • Rank 6: Chief Justice of India and the Speaker of the Lok Sabha (IV)

Based on this hierarchy, the correct sequence is I, III, II, IV. It is important to note that Governors rank 4th only within their respective states; outside their states, they are placed at Rank 8. Since the question specifies "within their respective States", they correctly follow the Prime Minister in the sequence.
