The correct answer is option 4: "The Council of Ministers is responsible to the Lok Sabha." This is one of the key characteristics of a Parliamentary system of government. In a Parliamentary system, the Council of Ministers (headed by the Prime Minister) is accountable to the elected body (in this case, the Lok Sabha). The Council of Ministers is formed with members from the party or coalition that has majority in the Lok Sabha. They are responsible for making and implementing policies, and they can be removed from their positions if they lose the support of the Lok Sabha. This ensures that the government remains accountable to the people`s representatives and can be easily replaced if they no longer have their support. The other options mentioned (options 1, 2, and 3) are not the defining characteristics of a Parliamentary system of government.
