How does a constitution take accountability beyond mere moral wish in democracy?

Correct answer: By linking accountability with rules, institutions and rights

Correct answer: A. A moral wish says that leaders should behave well, but it may not provide a method for checking or correcting wrongdoing. A constitution turns this wish into an enforceable public arrangement. It defines powers, establishes institutions, protects rights and prescribes procedures through which government action can be questioned. Legislatures, courts, elections and other lawful mechanisms can make public authorities explain their decisions or face consequences. Option B is wrong because accountability cannot depend only on personal goodness. Option C is the opposite of constitutional government. Option D is wrong because an unchecked government is not accountable. The key distinction is simple: morality asks people to do what is right; constitutional rules create duties, limits and institutions that help ensure it.
