Solution

The correct option is A Legislature

India is a democracy having the quasi-federal structure of Government. Laws are made separately at different levels, by the Union Government for the whole country and by the State Governments for their respective states as well as by local municipal councils at the district level. The legislative procedure in India for the Union Government requires that proposed bills pass through the two legislative houses of the Indian parliament, i.e. the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha. Legislative proposals are brought before either house of the Parliament of India in the form of a bill. A bill is the draft of a legislative proposal, which, when passed by both houses of Parliament and assented to by the President, becomes an Act of Parliament. As soon as the bill has been framed, it has to be published in the newspapers and the general public is asked to comment in a democratic manner. After a bill is passed, it then becomes a law.
