Solution

The correct option is D Constitution of India
Collective responsibility is an essential feature of Parliamentary democracy. In India collective responsibility of the cabinet is specifically enshrined in the Constitution. Article 75(3) lays down that the Council of Ministers shall be collectively responsible to Lok Sabha. When the ministry visits the confidence of the Lok Sabha all ministers including those who are from Rajya Sabha have to resign. This means that ministers fall and stand together. The government in the parliamentary model is a united one. It has a joint responsibility. Each member of the government has to support the other so long as he remains in the government.
