What type of legitimacy does direct election provide to Lok Sabha?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Popular legitimacy

Correct answer: A. In a direct election, citizens vote for representatives in their constituencies. The elected Lok Sabha therefore receives a mandate from the people, and this direct connection gives it popular legitimacy. Popular legitimacy means that an institution is regarded as having rightful democratic authority because it reflects the choice of citizens. Option B is wrong because judicial legitimacy relates to courts and their legal-constitutional role, not popular election. Option C is wrong because administrative legitimacy describes acceptance of administration, not the specific democratic basis created by direct voting. Option D is wrong because military legitimacy is not the source of authority of an elected House. Memory cue: “Direct votes create a direct popular mandate.”
