46. The main advantage of the parliamentary form of government is that
a) the executive and legislature work independently
b) It provides continuity of policy and is more efficient
c) the executive remains responsible to the legislature
d) the head of the government cannot be changed without the election.
The correct answer is option 3.
- The Indian Constitution calls for parliamentary government at both the national and state levels.
- Articles 74 and 75 deal with the parliamentary system of government at the Union level, while Articles 163 and 164 deal with the States.
- The executive must account to the legislature for its policies and actions. (Hence, option 3 is correct.)
- In the Presidential form of government, the executive is not accountable to the legislature for its policies and actions, implying that the executive and legislature operate independently.
