AArticle 111 – Veto power
BArticle 123 – Pardoning power ✓ Correct
CArticle 143 – Power to consult the Supreme Court
DNone of the above
Correct answer: (B) Article 123 – Pardoning power — The Article 123 pairing is incorrect, so that is the answer.
Explanation
★The Article 123 pairing is incorrect, so that is the answer.
★Article 123 is about the power to promulgate ordinances, not pardoning.
★The pardoning power of the President is under Article 72.
★Article 111 does deal with the President's veto over bills.
★Article 143 does give the power to consult the Supreme Court.
★So only the Article 123 pairing is wrong.
★Thus the answer is the Article 123 pairing.
