Not attemptedCorrect Answer: (d) Neither 1 nor 2
Article 88 gives every Minister and the Attorney-General—not the Solicitor General—the right to speak and participate in Parliament; therefore statement 1 is incorrect. Article 76(4) says the Attorney-General holds office during the President’s pleasure; the Constitution does not tie his resignation to that of the government, so statement 2 is also incorrect.
