Why is control over tax and expenditure without Parliament's approval considered undemocratic?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because decisions on public money would happen without consent of people's representatives

Answer: A. Taxes are collected from people, and public expenditure uses resources held for public purposes. In a democracy, elected representatives must examine and approve these decisions so citizens have an indirect voice in how their money is raised and spent. Parliamentary approval also permits debate, questioning and scrutiny of priorities. Without it, the executive could impose taxes or spend public money without proper representative consent, reducing accountability. A is correct. B is irrelevant: Rajya Sabha's permanence does not itself justify spending without approval. C is insufficient: a Prime Minister speaking in Lok Sabha is not approval of every financial decision. D is wrong because the definition of a Bill does not explain democratic financial control. Memory cue: “No public money without public representatives’ approval.”
