The Parliament of India exercises control over the functions of the Council of Ministers through mechanisms like adjournment motions, question hour, and supplementary questions, all of which enhance legislative oversight and accountability. An adjournment motion allows Members of Parliament (MPs) to discuss urgent matters, potentially leading to discussions on the Council's actions, while the question hour enables MPs to seek clarifications and hold ministers accountable for their policies and decisions. Supplementary questions further deepen this engagement by allowing follow-up inquiries, thereby ensuring that the executive remains answerable to the legislature and reinforcing the principle of parliamentary democracy. This interplay is crucial in maintaining checks and balances within the governmental framework as defined in the Constitution of India.
