Solution

The correct option is C Arun is correct and Varun is wrong.
In case the PM resigns from his post then the entire cabinet has to resign because the cabinet was chosen by the PM. In such cases, the Presidential rule will be applicable till the new PM is chosen, but the role change never happens. The PM does not become the President, or the reverse does not happen.
