The correct answer is: b) Parliamentary supremacy.
Parliamentary supremacy is the principle that the legislative branch of government is the supreme power in a state. This means that the parliament has the power to make and unmake laws, and that its decisions are not subject to review by any other branch of government.
The Manipur State Constitution Act was adopted in 1947, shortly after India gained independence from British rule. The Act was heavily influenced by the British constitutional principle of parliamentary supremacy. This is evident in the fact that the Manipur State Legislative Assembly is the supreme law-making body in the state, and that its decisions are not subject to review by any other branch of government.
The other options are incorrect because they are not British constitutional principles.
- Rule of law is the principle that no one is above the law, and that everyone is subject to the same laws, regardless of their position or status.
- Federalism is the principle of government in which power is shared between a central government and regional governments.
- Separation of church and state is the principle that the government should not interfere in religious matters, and that religion should not interfere in government matters.
