If the position of President and Vice-President are vacant, who officiates as the President of India?

Correct answer: (b) The Chief Justice of India

Explanation

According to Article 65, if the office of the President becomes vacant due to death, resignation, or removal, the Vice-President shall discharge the functions of the President. If, for any reason, the Vice-President is also not available, then the Chief Justice of India, or, in his absence, the senior-most Judge of the Supreme Court who is available at that time, shall perform the functions of the President, as provided under the President (Discharge of Functions) Act, 1969.
