How many items are there in the 11th Schedule of the Constitution of India?

A 22
B 24
C 29
D 32

Correct answer: (c) 29

Explanation

  1. A

    22

    (a) 22. That is not the Eleventh Schedule count (22 is sometimes confused with Union List lore or other lists).

  2. B

    24

    (b) 24. Short of the 29 functional items of the 73rd Amendment schedule.

  3. C

    29

    (c) 29. The Eleventh Schedule (Panchayats, Article 243G) lists 29 subjects. That number is the official key.

  4. D

    32

    (d) 32. Too high; 18 is the Twelfth Schedule (municipalities), 29 is the Eleventh.

Summary. Official key is (c) 29. Eleventh Schedule = 29 Panchayat subjects; Twelfth Schedule = 18 municipal subjects. Honour the stored letter (c).
