Explanation: The Constitution of India established a parliamentary form of government in which the Executive is responsible to the Parliament for its policies and acts.

• Hence, the Parliament exercises control over the Executive through question-hour, zero hour, half-an-hour discussion, short duration discussion, calling attention motion, adjournment motion, no-confidence motion, censure motion and other discussions.
• It also supervises the activities of the Executive with the help of its committees like the committee on government assurance, committee on subordinate legislation, committee on petitions, etc.
