The fundamental principle underlying the working of parliamentary system of government is the principle of collective responsibility. What are the implications of this principle?
1) All the ministers own joint responsibility to the Lok Sabha for all their acts of omission and commission.
2) All the ministers are bound by the Cabinet decisions even if they had expressed disagreement with the decision in the cabinet meeting.
Which of the above is/are correct?

Both 1 and 2
None
Article 75 clearly states that the council of ministers is collectively responsible to the Lok Sabha. This means that all the ministers own joint responsibility to the Lok Sabha for all their acts of omission and commission. They work as a team and swim or sink together. When the Lok Sabha passes a no-confidence motion against the council of ministers, all the ministers have to resign including those ministers who are from the Rajya Sabha. Alternatively, the council of ministers can advise the president to dissolve the Lok Sabha on the ground that the House does not represent the views of the electorate faithfully and call for fresh elections. The President may not oblige the council of ministers that has lost the confidence of the Lok Sabha. The principle of collective responsibility also means that the Cabinet decisions bind all cabinet ministers (and other ministers) even if they differed in the cabinet meeting.
