The term 'Parliament' has its root in the French word parley which means "to talk", " to discuss".

In society, there are various issues of conflicts and competition between the majority and minority groups. We cannot allow the  powerful groups to suppress the rights and freedom of the weaker groups. In that case the rights and freedom of individuals would be curbed and violence would ensue. That would lead to dictatorship not democracy. Hence, the requirement of a Parliament, where the greatest good of the people is arrived upon by the use of " talking", "discussions",  and "debates". The Parliament is the highest body of the government that makes and amends laws in favour of the society through debates.

The  primary functions of the Parliament are:

legislation, within its jurisdiction; 

amendments of the constitution; 

approval of presidential ordinance and proclamation; 

act as the check on the remaining two organs of government: Executive and Judiciary
