Solution

The correct option is A decentralisation
When power is taken away from the Central and the State government and given to the local government, then it is called decentralisation. Higher levels of government can't intervene in the affairs of lower levels of government. The central or the state government does not interfere in each other's matters. However, they are answerable to the people of the country.
