Explanation:

There is a subtle difference between the Cabinet and the Council of Ministers. The Council of Ministers is a bigger body which includes all categories of Ministers. All Ministers and Deputy Ministers are the members of the Council of Ministers. The Cabinet is a smaller body which consists of a few important senior ministers who are in charge of separate departments. The Cabinet is described as “a wheel within a wheel”. Its the nucleus of the Council of Ministers. Hence option 2nd is correct.
