If Cabinet makes a decision but departments lack coordination, what will be the result?

Correct answer: Delay, confusion, and contradictions may arise in implementation

The correct answer is A. A Cabinet decision gives the government a common policy direction, but the decision must be implemented through several ministries, departments, and officials. Coordination is needed so that departments understand their responsibilities, follow compatible procedures, and work within the same timetable. Without coordination, one department may delay another, issue contradictory instructions, or interpret the policy differently. The result can be confusion, delay, waste, and ineffective implementation. Option A correctly describes these practical consequences. Option B is wrong because the President does not directly pass the budget; Parliament deals with public finances according to constitutional procedure. Option C is wrong because lack of coordination cannot change the constitutional nature of the Lok Sabha. Option D is wrong because conducting elections is not the ordinary role of the judiciary. Memory cue: a decision is only the beginning; coordination turns a decision into action.
