Consider the following statements regarding a No-Confidence Motion in India: 1. There is no mention of a No-Confidence Motion in the Constitution of India. 2. A Motion of No-Confidence can be introduced in the Lok Sabha only. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

1. Statement 1 is correct. The Constitution of India, under Article 75(3), states that the Council of Ministers shall be collectively responsible to the Lok Sabha. However, the Constitution itself does not explicitly mention the procedure for a No-Confidence Motion. This procedure is detailed in the Rules of Procedure and Conduct of Business in Lok Sabha (specifically, Rule 198). 2. Statement 2 is correct. The principle of collective responsibility of the Council of Ministers is to the Lok Sabha (House of the People). Therefore, a Motion of No-Confidence, which tests this responsibility, can only be introduced and voted upon in the Lok Sabha. It cannot be introduced in the Rajya Sabha. Therefore, both statements are correct.
