What is Union Cabinet of India and How it Works?

According to the Constitution of India, in the everyday administration the Prime Minister is assisted by the
Council of Ministers, which consists of the Cabinet Ministers, Deputy Ministers, Ministers of State with
independent charge, Ministers of State working with the Cabinet Ministers and others. The Prime Minister is the
Chairperson of the Cabinet. The core Council of Ministers is called the Cabinet, ministers of which are decided
by the PM. The various departments are allotted to various ministers by the PM. The PM presides over Cabinet
meetings and oversees the important functions of the Cabinet. Ministers are removed from departments if the
PM does not approve of the performance of the minister.
Cabinet Ministers and Prime Minister
The Prime Minister of India is the Head of the Union Government. Unlike the President who is the Head of the
State, the PM is the Chief of government at the Centre In other words, he is the real head of the executive
branch of the Union Government. He is the Leader of the House of Parliament to which he belongs.

As India follows the Westminster Model of constitutional

democracy, it is the Prime Minister who oversees the day-to-day functioning of the Indian administration. He is
also the Chief adviser to the President. The PM has many functions and powers. The PM holds the power to
form his/her Council of Ministers, choosing members of his/her party for particular ministries within the working
of the country.

The PM also oversees defence-related issues of the country. He makes all important policies and schemes of
the government. He has to devote attention to all judicial appointments, appointments to State Administrative
Tribunals, Central Administrative Tribunal, UPSC, Election Commission. The PM is solely in-charge of certain
departments or ministries like Ministry of Planning, Department of Atomic Energy, Department of Space and
Ministry of Personal, Public Grievances and Pensions.

Categories of Ministers in Government

There are three categories of ministers within the Council of Ministers - Cabinet, Ministers of State with
independent charges and Ministers of State working with the Cabinet Ministers.

Roles and Responsibilities of Cabinet Ministers of India

The Cabinet of India is the core of the Council of Ministers of the Union Government, and the collective
decision-making body. All the important portfolios of the Central Government together comprise the Cabinet.
Some of the most important ministries are Ministry of Home Affairs, Ministry of External Affairs, Ministry of
Defence, Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Commerce and Industry and others.

The role of the Cabinet ranges from advising the Council of Ministers and provide assistance to them, attend
Cabinet meetings called by either the Prime Minister or any one of the Cabinet ministers to discuss issues
related to his ministry. More importantly, it is the role of the Cabinet primarily to keep the confidence of the
Houses of Parliament during the party's tenure in the Union government. It is the collective responsibility of the
Cabinet to be accountable to the two Houses of Parliament, for its policies and schemes.

Roles and Responsibilities of Ministers of State with independent charges

The Ministers of State with independent charges are the second category of ministers in the Council of
Ministers. They are not as important in their role as the Cabinet. There is no overseeing Cabinet Minister for the
portfolio of the Minister of state with independent charges.

Roles and Responsibilities of Ministers of State

Ministers of State working with the Cabinet Ministers are the third rank of ministers. These are junior ministers
who assist the Cabinet Minister in the particular portfolio. These junior ministers look after one or two aspects
of the Cabinet portfolio, and not the whole ministry as such.
