The correct option is D) 1, 2 and 4.

The Constitution of India borrowed features from various sources. From the British Constitution, India adopted the Rule of Law, the Law-making Procedure (based on the parliamentary system), and the Parliamentary System of government itself. The concept of the Independence of Judiciary, however, was primarily borrowed from the Constitution of the United States of America.

Key features borrowed from the British Constitution include nominal head (President), Cabinet system, Parliamentary type of government, Bicameral Parliament, Rule of Law, Legislative Procedure, Single Citizenship, and Speaker of Lok Sabha. The US Constitution contributed features like the Preamble, Fundamental Rights, Federal structure of government, Electoral College, Independence of Judiciary, Judicial Review, Impeachment of the President, and removal of Supreme Court and High Court judges.
