Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Constitution.

The Constitution of India lays down the basic rules on the powers and functions of each institution. As the supreme law of the land, it meticulously defines the structure, powers, and responsibilities of the legislature (Parliament), the executive (President, Prime Minister, Council of Ministers), and the judiciary (Supreme Court, High Courts). It also outlines fundamental rights and duties, ensuring a system of checks and balances to prevent the concentration of power and uphold democratic principles.
