Which of the following provisions of the Indian constitution is borrowed from the constitution of Canada?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. Advisory jurisdiction of the Supreme court.
The advisory jurisdiction of the Supreme Court is a provision in the Indian Constitution that is borrowed from the Constitution of Canada. Under Article 143, the President of India can seek the opinion of the Supreme Court on matters of public importance or law. While the opinion given is not binding, it serves as valuable legal guidance. This concept was inspired by Canada’s legal system, where a similar mechanism exists, reflecting the influence of the Canadian model on India's judicial framework.
