What is the main difference between individual ministerial responsibility and collective responsibility?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Individual responsibility relates to a minister’s department, while collective responsibility relates to the government as a whole.

Answer: A. Individual ministerial responsibility means that a minister is answerable for the functioning and decisions of the department assigned to that minister. Collective responsibility means that the Council of Ministers stands together for the government’s major policies and decisions and is jointly responsible to the Lok Sabha. Ministers may discuss issues privately, but in public they are expected to support the government’s agreed policy or leave office. B is wrong because these are principles of parliamentary executive accountability, not only court matters. C is wrong because ministerial responsibility does not remove the Lok Sabha. D is wrong because collective responsibility belongs to the Council of Ministers, not to a private presidential opinion. Memory cue: individual equals one department; collective equals the whole government.
