\nStatement A is correct. Article 361(1) of the Indian Constitution provides immunity to the President from being answerable to any court for the exercise and performance of the powers and duties of his office.
\n<\/section>\n
\nThe Constitution grants certain immunities to the President and Governors in their official capacity.
\n<\/section>\n
\nStatement A is a direct reflection of Article 361(1). Statement B is correct that the Supreme Court has review power (Article 137), but the phrasing “Subject to the provisions of this Constitution” is broad; Article 137 specifies “Subject to the provisions of any law made by Parliament or any rules made under article 145”. Statement C is also correct (Article 121 restricts parliamentary discussion of judges’ conduct except for removal motion). Statement D is incorrect; High Courts do have superintendence over subordinate courts and tribunals (Article 227). Comparing A and C, A is a fundamental immunity related to the head of state’s function, while C is a restriction on legislative discussion safeguarding judicial independence. In the context of a single correct answer, A represents a direct constitutional grant of immunity to the President.
