To which House is the Council of Ministers collectively responsible?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Lok Sabha

Correct answer: A — the Council of Ministers is collectively responsible to Lok Sabha. Collective responsibility means that the ministers act as a team and must retain the confidence of the House to which they are responsible. In India, the Council of Ministers is responsible to Lok Sabha, whose members are directly elected by the people. If the government loses majority support in Lok Sabha, for example through a successful no-confidence motion, the ministry normally has to resign. Option A is correct. Option B is wrong because the Council is not collectively responsible to Rajya Sabha, although ministers may answer questions and participate there. Option C is wrong because the Supreme Court interprets law and decides cases; it does not provide parliamentary confidence. Option D is wrong because the Election Commission conducts and supervises elections, not government accountability. Memory cue: “Collective responsibility = Lok Sabha confidence.”
