Accountability in governance refers to

  • A.The ability of citizens to hold leaders, government and public organisations to account.
  • B.The ability of citizens to open accounts in banks.
  • C.The National income account that show profit and loss of government.
  • D.The behaviour of chartered accountants in the corporate world.

Answer: A

Accountability in governance refers to the ability of citizens to hold leaders, government and public organisations to account for their actions, option (A). It means that those who hold power must explain and answer for the use of that power.

Opening bank accounts (option B), the national income account of profit and loss (option C) and the conduct of chartered accountants in business (option D) use the word account in a different sense and have nothing to do with the meaning of accountability in governance.
