The correct answer is: A. Article 170
Article 170 of the Indian Constitution provides for the qualifications of members of the Legislative Council of a State. It states that a person shall not be qualified to be a member of the Legislative Council unless he:
(a) is a citizen of India;
(b) is not less than 30 years of age; and
(c)
The article also provides that the President may, by order, make provision for the disqualification on the ground of mental or physical infirmity of a person who is a member of the Legislative Council.
The other options are incorrect because:
- Article 171 provides for the composition of the Legislative Council of a State.
- Article 172 provides for the powers, privileges and immunities of the Legislative Council of a State.
- Article 173 provides for the procedure in the Legislative Council of a State.
