Solution

The correct option is C Initiative

Proposing and making law is the responsibility of legislature, but if the citizens propose a law, it is called initiative. In some countries like Switzerland, citizens play a crucial role in law making. In such system a proposal is only considered if it is supported by a specified number of people.
