The correct answer is: A. Oath and Affirmation by Judges of the High Court.
Section 97 of the Jammu and Kashmir Constitution deals with the oath or affirmation to be taken by the Judges of the High Court. It states that every person appointed to be a Judge of the High Court shall, before entering upon his office, take and subscribe before the Governor, or some person appointed in that behalf by him, an oath or affirmation in the following form:
“I, A.B., do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully and impartially discharge and perform the duties of the office of Judge of the High Court of Jammu and Kashmir, without fear or favour, affection or ill-will, and that I will uphold the Constitution and the laws of India and of the State of Jammu and Kashmir.”
The other options are incorrect because they are not dealt with in Section 97 of the Jammu and Kashmir Constitution. Option B deals with the salaries of Judges of the High Court of the State. Option C deals with the appointment of the Judges of High Court of the State. Option D deals with the qualifications for appointment of a Judge of the High Court.
