{{Politics of India}}

The '''Union Council of Ministers''' exercises [[Executive (government)|executive authority]] in the [[India|Republic of India]].<ref name="CONSt2">[[Wikisource:Constitution of India/Part V#Article 74 .7BCouncil of Ministers to aid and advise President.7D]]</ref> It consists of senior [[Minister (government)|ministers]], called 'cabinet ministers', junior ministers, called '[[Minister of State|ministers of state]]' and, rarely, deputy ministers. The council is led by the [[Prime Minister of India]].

A smaller executive body called the '''Union Cabinet''' is the supreme decision-making body in India.<ref name="const1">[[Wikisource: Constitution of India/Part XVIII]]</ref> Only the prime minister and ministers of the rank of cabinet minister are members of the Union Cabinet in accordance with [[s: Constitution of India/Part XVIII|Article 75]].

== Regulation ==
Pursuant to [[s: Constitution of India/Part V|Article 75(3)]], the Council of Ministers is responsible collectively to the lower house of the [[Parliament of India|Indian parliament]], called the [[Lok Sabha]] (House of the People).<ref name="CONSt2"/> When a bill introduced by a minister in the Lok Sabha is not approved by it, the entire council of ministers is responsible and not the minister. The council of ministers upon losing the confidence of Lok Sabha shall resign to facilitate the formation of a new government.

A minister shall not take any decision without being considered by the council of ministers per [[s: Constitution of India/Part V|Article 78(c)]]. All union cabinet members shall submit in writing to the President to propose a proclamation of emergency by the president in accordance with [[s: Constitution of India/Part XVIII|Article 352]].

According to the [[Constitution of India]], the total number of ministers in the council of ministers must not exceed 15% of the total number of members of the Lok Sabha. Ministers must be members of parliament. Any minister who is not a member of either of the houses of the parliament for six consecutive months is automatically stripped off his or her ministerial post.<ref name="CONSt2"/>

==Ranking==
There are five categories of the council of ministers as given below, in descending order of [[Indian order of precedence|rank]]:
* [[Prime Minister of India|Prime Minister]]: Leader of the executive of the [[Government of India]].
* [[Deputy Prime Minister of India|Deputy Prime Minister]] (if any) : presides as prime minister in his absence or as the senior most cabinet minister.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/of-deputy-chief-ministers-and-the-constitution/article3632410.ece|title=Of Deputy Chief Ministers and the Constitution|last=Rajendran|first=S.|date=13 July 2012|work=[[The Hindu]]|access-date=7 March 2018|location=[[Bangalore]]|issn=0971-751X|oclc=13119119|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180201092604/http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/of-deputy-chief-ministers-and-the-constitution/article3632410.ece|archive-date=1 February 2018|url-status=live}}</ref>
* Cabinet Minister: A member of the cabinet; leads a ministry.
* Minister of State (Independent charge): Junior minister not reporting to a Cabinet Minister.
* Minister of State (MoS): Deputy Minister reporting to a Cabinet Minister, usually tasked with a specific responsibility in that ministry.

==Appointment==
Pursuant to [[s: Constitution of India/Part V|Article 75]], a minister who works at the pleasure of [[President of India|president]], is appointed by the president on the advice of the prime minister. Since at least the turn of the millennia, evidence indicates that an [[Member of Parliament, Lok Sabha|MP]]'s electoral performance enhances the likelihood of being granted a ministerial portfolio.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Ladwig III |first1=Walter C. |title=Executive Particularism and Ministerial Selection in India |journal=Legislative Studies Quarterly |date=23 December 2019 |volume=44 |issue=4 |pages=469–493 |doi=10.1111/lsq.12261 |publisher=Department of Political Science at Washington University in St. Louis|url=http://osf.io/j46fv/ }}</ref>

==Removal==
* Upon death.
* Upon self resignation
* Upon dismissal by the President for minister's unconstitutional acts per [[s:Constitution of India/Part V|Article 75(2)]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Origin and Scope of Doctrine of Pleasure in India|url=http://www.desikanoon.co.in/2014/06/origin-and-scope-of-doctrine-of.html|access-date=7 May 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160426035429/http://www.desikanoon.co.in/2014/06/origin-and-scope-of-doctrine-of.html|archive-date=26 April 2016|url-status=live}}</ref>
* Upon direction from the Judiciary for committing violation of law.
* Upon ceasing eligibility to be a member of Parliament.
* Under the provision of "Collective Responsibility" under Article 75, the Prime Minister and the entire Council of Ministers resign if a [[Motion of no confidence|Vote of No Confidence]] is passed in the Lower House (Lok Sabha) of the Indian Parliament.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Prime Minister & Council of Ministers - Election, Roles, Collective Responsibility - Indian Polity|url=https://byjus.com/free-ias-prep/prime-minister-and-council-of-ministers/|access-date=1 October 2020|website=BYJUS|language=en-US}}</ref>

==Council of Ministers in state governments==
Every state in India is governed by its council of ministers with rules and procedures similar to union council of ministers per [[s: Constitution of India/Part VI|Articles 163, 164 and 167(c)]].

For the first time in March 2020, the Supreme Court of India used its powers to do "complete justice" under Article 142 of the Indian Constitution to remove a minister functioning in the state of Manipur.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Supreme Court Invoked Special Powers to Remove a Minister|url=https://www.drishtiias.com/daily-updates/daily-news-analysis/supreme-court-invoked-special-powers-to-remove-a-minister|access-date=1 October 2020|website=Drishti IAS|language=en}}</ref>
