खालीलपैकी कोणते विधान बरोबर आहे ?
(1) राज्याच्या मंत्रिमंडळातील सदस्यांची संख्या मुख्यमंत्र्या व्यतिरिक्त विधानसभेच्या एकूण सदस्य संख्येच्या 15 टक्क्यांपेक्षा जास्त असता कामा नये.
(2) राज्याच्या मंत्रिमंडळातील सदस्यांची संख्या मुख्यमंत्र्यासहित 12 पेक्षा कमी असता कामा नये.
(3) दिल्लीच्या मंत्रिमंडळाची सदस्य संख्या विधानसभेच्या एकूण सदस्य संख्येच्या 15 टक्के निश्चित करण्यांत आली आहे.
(4) वरीलपैकी एकही नाही

The correct answer is Option B (The total number of ministers including the Chief Minister shall not be less than 12 in a State.).

Key Points:
• Article 164(1A) was inserted by the 91st Constitutional Amendment Act, 2003:
• The total number of ministers, including the Chief Minister, in the Council of Ministers in a State shall not exceed 15 percent of the total number of members of the Legislative Assembly (Statement 1 is incorrect because it says 'excluding the Chief Minister').
• Provided that the number of ministers, including the Chief Minister in a State, shall not be less than 12 (Statement 2 is fully correct).
• Under Article 239AA(4), the Council of Ministers for the NCT of Delhi shall consist of not more than 10 percent (not 15%) of the total number of members in the Legislative Assembly (Statement 3 is incorrect).
• Thus, statement 2 is the correct statement.
• Key Takeaway: In states, the Council of Ministers (including CM) cannot exceed 15% and cannot be less than 12 (91st Amendment).
