    Question

    "Disqualification on the ground of defection shall not apply in case of split in the political party." This provision has been deleted by:

    A.

    Constitution (Ninety First Amendment) Act, 2003.

    B.

    Constitution (Ninety-Third Amendment) Act, 2005.

    C.

    Constitutional (Ninety Fourth Amendment) Act, 2006.

    D.

    None of the above

    Correct option is A


    The Ninety-First Amendment to the Constitution (2003) made significant changes to the Tenth Schedule (Anti-defection law). It removed the provision allowing a split in a political party to be a valid defense against defection, thus tightening the anti-defection law.
    Information Booster:
    This amendment was introduced to strengthen the anti-defection law, ensuring greater party discipline and preventing legislators from splitting parties to avoid disqualification.
    Additional Information:
    · Option (b), (c): These amendments deal with other provisions of the Constitution and do not relate to the anti-defection law.
