Question 2 of 10
2. Question
Choose the type of ‘Executive’ in India?
Correct
In a democratic country, two categories make up the executive. One that is elected by the people for a specific period, is called the political executive. Political leaders who take the big decisions fall in this category. In the second category, people are appointed on a long-term basis. This is called the permanent executive or civil services. They remain in office even when the ruling party changes. These officers work under political executive and assist them in carrying out the day-to-day administration.
