Question

Part V of the Indian Constitution begins with Chapter I, the Executive. It looks at the roles and responsibilities of the President, Vice President, and Council of Ministers, among others. It is in Chapter II that the role and functions of Parliament are listed. Why might this be so?

Answer 1

The Constitution begins with the Executive to highlight its important role in governing the country. While Parliament makes laws, the Executive, including the President, Prime Minister, and Council of Ministers, is responsible for implementing them. This shows that both making laws and carrying them out are essential for effective governance. The country can function smoothly only when Parliament and the Executive work together and perform their respective duties.
