Solution

The correct option is D Prime Minister
While drafting the Constitution of India, Dr. B. R. Ambedkar enumerated the role of Prime Minister of India to be a functionary which can be compared to the President of USA. Thus, it can be said that in India, President is the nominal head while the Prime Minister is the executive head of the government.
