(b) Quorum refers to the minimum number of members of an assembly or society that must be present at any of its meetings to make the proceedings of that meeting valid.

(c) Maximum gap is not more than six months between two parliamentary sessions.

(d) The President of India administers the oath of office to the Council of Ministers.

(e) Ordinances are ephemeral laws that are promulgated by the President of India on the recommendation of the Union Cabinet. They can only be issued when Parliament is not in session. They enable the Indian government to take immediate legislative action.

(f) Indian constitution does not want to give complete authority to a single person. So the Electoral College concept for electing the President of India is one of the many checks and balances present in it.

(g) Policy formation is an administrative function of the Cabinet.

(h) Habeas Corpus and Mandamus are two of the writs issued by the Supreme Court.

(i) The highest **** court in a district is that of the Session’* Judge.

(j) Lok Adalat, as the name suggests, means People’ Court. ‘Lok’ stands for People and the word ‘Adalat’ means Court. Lok Adalat is a special kind of people’ court in which disputes are solved by direct talks between the litigants.
