Discussion
Given below are two statements, one labelled as Assertion (A) and the other labelled as Reason (R). Choose the correct answer from the codes.
Assertion (A) : Presidential system is suitable for meeting crises.
Reason (R) : The President has a fixed tenure.
Answer: B
The keyed answer is that both statements are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). A presidential system is held to suit crises because the executive is concentrated in one person who can act with speed, and the President does have a fixed tenure. The fixed tenure gives stability, but it is not what makes the system suited to crises: that comes from unity of command and decisiveness. So option B holds, and option A, which makes the tenure the explanation, is wrong.
