Solution
The Legislature is regarded as the first organ of the government for several reasons:
- Law-making authority: The legislature enacts laws, and without them, no other branch (executive or judiciary) can function properly.
- People’s representation: It is made up of elected representatives, making it the most immediate link between the public and the government.
- Foundation of governance: The executive and judiciary derive their authority from legislation established by the legislature.
- Historical significance: Legislative assemblies originated before modern executive and judicial branches, making them the first organised body of governance.
