Consider the following statements with reference to the Constitution of India : 1. There is no Article in the Constitution of India that specifies that the Constitution of India will be officially called the 'Constitution of India'. 2. There is no Article in the Constitution of India that specifies that the Indian Independence Act, 1947 and the Government of India Act, 1935 stand repealed. 3. There is no Article in the Constitution of India that mentions 26th January, 1950 as the date of the commencement of the Constitution of India. Which one of the following conclusions based on the above statements is correct ?
A
All three statements are correct.
B
There is no correct statement.
Correct answer
C
There are two correct statements that include statement 3.
D
There is only one correct statement.
Explanation
All three statements are false. Article 393 gives the Constitution its short title, 'the Constitution of India'. Article 395 repeals the Indian Independence Act, 1947 and the Government of India Act, 1935. Article 394 provides that the remaining provisions come into force on 26 January 1950. So there is no correct statement.
