Both use the same questions. Normal practice is untimed and needs no account: choose an option and the answer and solution appear at once. The Simulated test is the real computer-based format, with one 30-minute clock, a question palette and full screen, and your score, the key and the solutions arrive when you submit.

About this test

President and Vice-President Indian Polity Questions: Medium Level Practice

The President and Vice-President GK Quiz Level 2 on Aptitude360 is a medium-level Indian Polity set on the two highest constitutional offices of India. It moves past single facts to statement-based, list-matching, odd-one-out and chronology questions on electoral colleges, vote values, impeachment, ordinances and pardons.

What the Level 2 President and Vice-President set tests

  • Composition of the electoral colleges for the President and the Vice-President, and how they differ
  • How the vote values of MLAs and MPs are worked out in the Presidential election
  • Steps and conditions of the impeachment procedure and the removal of the Vice-President
  • Scope and limits of the pardoning power and the ordinance-making power
  • Article-to-subject matching on oath, vacancy, conditions of office and election disputes
  • Ordering events such as the Amendments on ministerial advice and the Post Office Bill episode

Key concepts behind the statement-based questions

  • Why nominated members vote in the Vice-President's election but not in the President's
  • Office of profit rules and the effect of a sitting legislator being elected President
  • The President's limited discretion versus the binding advice of the Council of Ministers
  • What happens when Parliament repasses a Bill returned for reconsideration
  • When an Ordinance lapses after Parliament reassembles

How to prepare for matching and chronology questions

  • Build a timeline of the Amendments that changed the President's relationship with the Council of Ministers
  • In each statement, find the word such as only, all, every or cannot that decides whether it is true
  • Compare the President's and Vice-President's provisions side by side to spot odd-one-out options

Who this quiz suits

Polity learners who already know the basic facts about the Union executive and now want UPSC-style statement and matching questions.

All doubts and disputes arising from the election of the President or the Vice-President are inquired into and decided by the Supreme Court, whose decision is final.
How can the Vice-President of India be removed?
The Vice-President can be removed by a resolution of the Rajya Sabha passed by a majority of all its then members and agreed to by the Lok Sabha. Advance notice of the resolution is required, and the Constitution specifies no ground.
