      Question

      Under Section 10, the general rule on tenure is that no

      member of the Council shall hold office for more than how many consecutive terms?
      A One consecutive term Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Two consecutive terms Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Three consecutive terms Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Four consecutive terms Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E There is no limit on consecutive terms Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Section 10(1) makes a Council member eligible for re-election or re-nomination, but its first proviso caps tenure at three consecutive terms. A member who has been elected as President is further barred from re-election or re-nomination as a Council member. Section 10(2) contains transitional rules adjusting eligibility for members already serving at the commencement of the 2022 Amendment. The general consecutive-term cap is therefore three, making it correct.
