Correct Answer: Entire Council of Ministers


Solution : The correct option is entire Council of Ministers.

The whole Council of Ministers will resign if the Prime Minister of India submits their letter of resignation to the President. This is so because the Prime Minister serves as the Council of Ministers' head and they are all collectively accountable to the Lok Sabha, the lower house of the Indian Parliament. The entire Cabinet is basically dissolved when the Prime Minister steps down.
