खालीलपैकी कोणते विधान चुकीचे आहे ?

The correct answer is Option B (The validity of anything done by the Governor can be called in question on the ground that he ought or ought not to have acted in his discretion.).

Key Points:
• Analysis of Constitutional Provisions:
• Article 163(2) of the Indian Constitution clearly stipulates that if any question arises whether a matter is or is not a matter in respect of which the Governor is required to act in his discretion, the decision of the Governor in his discretion shall be final.
• The validity of anything done by the Governor shall not be called in question on the ground that he ought or ought not to have acted in his discretion. Therefore, Option 2 is an incorrect statement.
• Under Article 74, the Constitution does not explicitly grant constitutional discretionary powers to the President, whereas Article 163(1) expressly provides for discretionary powers to the Governor.
• The 42nd Constitutional Amendment Act, 1976 made ministerial advice binding on the President (later modified slightly by the 44th Amendment Act, 1978 to allow one-time reconsideration), but no corresponding binding clause was inserted into Article 163 for the Governor.
• Key Takeaway: Under Article 163(2), the Governor's discretionary decisions cannot be called into question.
