What kind of power is Parliament's power to make laws?

Correct answer: Legislative power

Direct answer: A, legislative power. The legislature is the branch of government that makes laws. In India, Parliament discusses Bills, considers amendments, and passes laws within the limits of the Constitution. Therefore, the power to make, amend, or repeal laws is called legislative power. B is wrong because executive power mainly means implementing and administering laws; it is exercised by the political executive and the administration. C is wrong because judicial power involves interpreting the law, deciding disputes, and protecting constitutional principles through courts. D is wrong because elections are organised and supervised through the electoral system and the Election Commission, not described as Parliament’s law-making power. Parliament may also perform other functions, such as controlling public money and scrutinising the executive, but the specific power named in the question is legislative. Memory cue: legislature legislates—law-making; executive executes—law implementation; judiciary judges—dispute resolution.
