In which situation can the Prime Minister's political power become weakest?

Correct answer: When majority support in the Lok Sabha becomes weak

Correct answer: A. In a parliamentary system, the Prime Minister normally leads the government because the Council of Ministers has the support of a majority in the Lok Sabha. That support allows the government to pass legislation, approve expenditure, and remain in office. If majority support becomes weak—for example, because coalition partners withdraw or members stop supporting the government—the Prime Minister’s ability to lead and implement policy is reduced. Option A is correct because political strength depends greatly on legislative majority support. B is wrong because formal presidential orders alone do not normally determine the Prime Minister’s political strength. C is wrong because a Cabinet meeting is a normal part of government work. D is wrong because ministers managing departments is also normal and may help administration. Memory cue: in parliamentary government, the Prime Minister’s power rests on the confidence of the Lok Sabha.
