Variant 01 Standard Evaluation
Evaluate the sovereign evolution and internal dynamics of the Constituent Assembly:
Solution & Analysis
Answer: A
The first and third statements are accurate. The 1947 Act made the Assembly fully sovereign (able to alter British law), and it indeed had two Vice-Presidents (Mukherjee and Krishnamachari). The second statement is false because after the partition plan was accepted, Muslim League members from territories falling within the Indian Dominion did enter the Assembly. The fourth statement is false because G.V. Mavlankar chaired the Assembly when it met as a legislative body (Dr. Sachchidanand Sinha was merely the temporary President of the very first meeting).
