Our Government

The government of our country has three arms, or parts. One arm makes laws. It is called the legislature. The second arm runs runs the country according to these laws. This arm is called the executive. And the third arm makes sure that everything actually happens according to the law. This arm is called the judiciary. This is true of the State Governments as well.

The Union Legislature :-

To legislate means to make laws. The union legislature, or the law-making body for the whole country, is the parliament. It has two houses or parts - the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha. The president, whose signature is needed for all laws, is also a part of the legislature.
The Lok Sabha The members of the Lok Sabha are elected by the people of the country during the general elections. Any Indian who is 18 or older can vote is these elections. The general elections are held every five years.

For the elections, the country is divided into many areas called constituencies. The people of each constituency are free to vote for any of the constants from their constituency. Any Indian who is 25 or older can be a contestant. Usually, however, those who contest belong to some party. The contestant who gets the greatest number of votes from a constituency get elected to the Lok Sabha from that constituency.

The Rajya Sabha The members of the Rajya Sabha are not elected directly by the people. They are elected by the legislative assemblies of the states and the union territories (UTs) of Delhi and Puducherry. In addition, twelve members are appointed by the president.They are people who are well known in their fields of work such as art, literature, sports and social work .
The members of the Rajya Sabha are elected for six years. One third of them retire every two years and new members are elected.

What the parliament does The most important function (job) of the parliament is to make, change and removes laws. Apart from this, it decides the taxes that people have to pay and the amount of money that the government will spend in a year. It also discusses the problems of the people and the relations of our country with other countries.

The Union Executive :-

The executive arm of the union government consists of the president, the vice president and the council of ministers. The president is the head of the union executive. every decision of the government is taken in the name of the president. Every new law that is made must have his or her signature. However, the real work of running the country is done by the prime minister (PM) and he council of ministers. Let us say that the president is like a grandparent. His (or her) advice is respected by everyone, but he (or she) does not do the actual work.
The president and the vice president are elected for a term of five years. The president is elected by the elected members of parliament and those of the legislative assemblies of the states and the union territories of Delhi and Puducherry. The vice president is elected by the parliament. In the absence of the president, the vice president acts as the president.

The council of ministers After the general election, the party (or group of like- minded parties) that wins majority forms the government. Their leader is appointed the prime minister by the president. The prime minister selects the council of ministers form among the members of parliament (MPs) of his or her party. They can be from either house of parliament.

The Judiciary :-

The judges and the courts of our country form our judiciary. The Supreme Court, in New Delhi, is the highest of the courts. It has a Chief justice and many other judges.The chief justice is appointed by the president. He or she advises the president on the other judges to be appointed to the Supreme Court.
Below the Supreme Court are the High Courts of the states. Most states have a High Court. The states that do not have one share the High Court of another state. The High Court is the highest court in a state. Below it are the District Courts.
What Courts do The main function of the courts is o see that everything happens according to the law. This includes punishing those who break the law and protecting those who are innocent. When someone is arrested for committing a crime, the courts decide whether the person is really guilty and what punishment he or she should get. They also settle disputes(fights). The dispute could be over money, a piece of land, and so on. When people are not happy with the decision of a lower Court, they can go to the next higher court.

State Governments :-

Every state has its own government. It has an executive, a legislature and judiciary.

The legislature The legislature in most states has one house called the legislative assembly. It makes laws for the state. The laws made by a state legislature hold only in that state.
The members of the legislative assembly (MLAs) of a state are elected by the people of the state during the state or assembly elections. These election too are held every five years. A state is divided into assembly constituencies for the state elections. These constituencies are smaller than the parliamentary constituencies.

The executive The state executive is headed by the governor. However, the chief minister and the council of ministers do the actual work of running the state.
The governor is appointed by the president. After the state elections, the leader of the majority party (or group of parties) in the legislative assembly is appointed the chief minister by the governor. The chief minister choose the other members of the council of ministers.

The judiciary As you know, the High Court is the highest court in a State. A state has many District. Each District has its own District Court.
