Whose tenure can change with the government between political and permanent executive?

Correct answer: Political Executive

Correct answer: A, the political executive. The political executive consists of leaders such as the Prime Minister and ministers. Their tenure is linked to political support, elections and the continuation of the government. A new election result, a change in coalition or loss of majority can lead to a change in the political executive. The permanent executive, mainly administrative officers, normally continues in service and provides stability while implementing decisions of successive governments. B is therefore incorrect. C is incorrect because the judiciary is a separate constitutional institution, and D is incorrect because the Election Commission is an independent constitutional body, not one of the two executives described here. Memory cue: elected leaders may change with politics; career officials provide continuity.
