Questioning the government in Lok Sabha creates what kind of pressure on policy decisions?

Correct answer: Democratic pressure to answer and justify decisions

Correct answer: B. Questions in the Lok Sabha require ministers to respond about government actions, proposed policies, expenditure, administration, and public problems. This gives elected representatives an opportunity to seek facts, expose weaknesses, ask for clarification, and communicate citizens’ concerns. The pressure is democratic because it operates through Parliament, where the government is expected to remain accountable. It does not mean that every question forces the government to adopt the member’s preferred policy. A is wrong because the main purpose is precisely to create answerability. C is wrong because courts do not contest elections and questioning the government does not give them that role. D is wrong because voter lists are unrelated to parliamentary questioning of policy. Memory cue: Question Hour turns “the government decided” into “the government must explain.”
