✨hey mate! here's your answer!✨

MERITS OF PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT ARE :-

(1) the tenure of the executive is fixed, and so, the policy is carried without any fear or favour. Further, a fixed tenure of office means a greater continuity of policies and programmes and higher standard of administration.

(2) As the executive authority is in one hand, there is singleness of purpose, more vigour initiative and promptness than in the cabinet system. There is unity of control in administration and there is absence of delay in taking decision.

(3) Another merit is " separation of powers" which is found in this system is an effective safeguard against arbitrary and oppressive government. Thus, in the presidential form, there is possibility of misuse of powers and the legislatures are likely to be less dominant and arrogant.

NOW, DEMERITS OF PARLIAMENTARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT ARE :-

(1) it is irresponsible because the executive is made independent of the legislature. it is dangerous Because there is no effective means by which the responsibility for the exercise of power maybe ensured.

(2) Another weakness of the system, is its failure to ensure the co-operation between law-makers and administrators. frequent conflicts between the legislature and the executive may lead to deadlocks.

(3) there is no continuous accountability of the executive to the representatives of the people in the legislature. the fixed term of office of the executive also curtails responsiveness to public opinion.
The refusal to re-elect the President after the fixed term is no effective enforcement of responsibility.  it is therefore, called an irresponsible form of government.
