    A Political parties Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B The Parliament Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C The Prime Minister Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    In India's democratic parliamentary system, Parliament is sovereign and has the power to make laws and policies for the country. The Seventh Schedule of the Constitution divides legislative powers between the center and states. Parliament can make laws on matters in the Union List, while both Parliament and State Legislatures can legislate on the Concurrent List. Parliament alone has power to make laws on matters not included in either the State or Concurrent Lists.
