Why is Cabinet approval important in a major policy decision?

Correct answer: Because it becomes the official collective decision of the government

Direct answer: A is correct. The Cabinet is the smaller, most important group of senior ministers within the Council of Ministers. It discusses major matters and gives decisions on behalf of the government. Cabinet approval is important because a policy then represents the official collective position of the government rather than the personal view of one minister or official. After approval, the decision may require legislation, budgetary support, administrative orders, or implementation by departments. The government remains answerable to Parliament for its actions. Option A is correct because it identifies collective governmental authority. Option B is wrong because Cabinet approval does not close courts. Option C is wrong because elections are not automatically cancelled by a policy decision. Option D is wrong because the Union Cabinet does not abolish state governments. Memory cue: Cabinet is the core decision-making group; collective approval gives a major policy political authority.
