We adopted parliamentary democracy based on the British model, but how does our model differ from that model?

1. As regards legislation, the British Parliament is supreme or sovereign but in India, the power of the Parliament to legislate is limited.
2. In India, matters related to the constitutionality of the Amendment of an Act of the Parliament are referred to the Constitution Bench by the Supreme Court. Select the correct answer using the code given below.

The British system follows the principle of Parliamentary Sovereignty, meaning the British Parliament is supreme.

In India, the legislative power of the Parliament is limited by the Constitution, which establishes a system of constitutional government. Hence, statement 1 is correct.

The Constitution of India, under Article 143 and Article 145(3), provides for a Constitution Bench.

The Chief Justice of India is authorized to constitute a Constitution Bench and refer cases involving substantial questions of law related to the interpretation of the Constitution. A Constitution Bench consists of at least five judges. Hence statement 2 is correct.

Therefore, both statements 1 and 2 are correct.
