Explanation
- A
The Union Territories – Part VIII
Option (a) claims that The Union Territories are dealt with in Part VIII of the Constitution. This pairing is correct, as Articles 239 to 242 govern the administration of Union territories.
- B
The Scheduled and Tribal Areas – Part X
Option (b) claims that The Scheduled and Tribal Areas are covered under Part X. This statement is correct since Part X contains Article 244 regarding scheduled and tribal areas.
- C
Tribunals – Part XI
Option (c) claims that Tribunals are included in Part XI of the Constitution, which makes this the incorrectly matched pair. Tribunals are actually provided for under Part XIV-A (Articles 323A and 323B), making this option the official key.
- D
Official Language – Part XVII
Option (d) claims that Official Language provisions are outlined in Part XVII. This is correctly matched, as Articles 343 to 351 pertain to the official language of the Union and states.
Summary. Official key is (c) because Tribunals are actually contained in Part XIV-A of the Constitution rather than Part XI. Part XI deals instead with relations between the Union and the States. Options (a), (b), and (d) correctly pair their respective constitutional parts with the provisions they govern. Aspirants frequently confuse Part XI center-state legislative provisions with tribunal chapters. Thus, option (c) remains the only incorrectly matched pairing among the choices given.
