Model Answer Approach

1. Decode demand: Identify the directive verb (discuss / examine / critically analyse) and bound the scope to Executive Vs Legislature.
2. Intro (40–50 words): Define the core concept; anchor with a definition, data point, or constitutional/historical reference.
3. Body: 2–3 thematic sub-heads with crisp points, examples and counter-arguments. Add a relevant case study or committee/report.
