Transparency and public accountability are the responsibility of the three…

Concept

A constitutional State distributes public power among three broad organs. The legislature makes laws and holds the executive to account; the executive administers and implements those laws; the judiciary interprets the law and adjudicates disputes. Transparency and accountability apply across all three.

Application

The passage explicitly says that the Right to Information applies to the Executive, Legislature and Judiciary and concludes that the move from non-transparency to transparency is the responsibility of all three organs.

Contrast

• Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha are both chambers of the legislature, so listing them separately does not identify three distinct organs.

• Replacing the judiciary with the executive while retaining both parliamentary chambers again counts parts of the legislature separately.

• A commission has a defined mandate, but it is not one of the three broad organs named in the passage.

Cross-check

Group the offered institutions by function: law-making means legislature, administration means executive, and adjudication means judiciary. Only the set Legislature, Executive and Judiciary covers all three functions once.

Result

Therefore, the three organs are the Legislature, Executive and Judiciary.
