Why is the Prime Minister called the head of the Council of Ministers?

Correct answer: Because he coordinates and leads the work of ministers

Correct answer: A. The Prime Minister is the head of the Council of Ministers because he leads the government and coordinates the work of different ministers. Ministers handle separate departments such as education, health or finance, but government policy must work as one connected programme. The Prime Minister helps set priorities, distributes portfolios, chairs important meetings and guides the Council as a team. B is wrong because Lok Sabha members are elected by voters; the Prime Minister does not select every member. C is wrong because the Prime Minister is a political executive, not a court judge. D is wrong because state governors are appointed for individual states and the Prime Minister is not the governor of all states. A useful distinction is that the President is the constitutional head, while the Prime Minister leads the real executive in the parliamentary system.
