Q.

B. Dismissal of the Ministry
C. Dissolution of the Legislative Assembly
D. Assent to Bills
Answer» D. Assent to Bills
Explanation: The Sarkaria Commission examined the scope of the discretion of the Governor in relation to assent to the Bills under Article 200 of the Constitution. It viewed that Article 200 does not provide discretion to the Governor either expressly or by implication. The commission observed that, the scope of Governor's discretion is very limited as is obvious by the fact that the Governor cannot withhold assent to a reconsidered Bill.
