- AA censure motion can be moved against a single Minister of the Council of Ministers.
- BA motion of no-confidence cannot be moved against the Prime Minister alone.
- CA censure motion cannot be moved against the entire Council of Ministers.
- DA censure motion can be moved against a group of Ministers.
Explanation
Statement C is not correct: a censure motion CAN be moved against the entire Council of Ministers, or against an individual minister, or a group of ministers — it expresses disapproval without requiring resignation. Statement A is true (censure against a single minister is allowed). Statement B is true: a no-confidence motion can only be moved against the entire Council of Ministers, never against the Prime Minister alone. Statement D is true (censure against a group is allowed). Hence the incorrect statement is C.
