Explanation:

Responsible government is a system which embodies the principle of parliamentary accountability, such as in India.It is also the foundation of the Westminster system of parliamentary democracy.Government is responsible to the parliament rather than to the monarch, or, in a colonial context, to the imperial government.If the parliament is bicameral, then the government is responsible first to the parliament's lower house, which is more numerous, directly elected and thus more representative than the upper house.Several enactments gradually increased the responsibility of the Ministers and officials to the legislature and indirectly to the people, for e.g. GoI Act, 1935 created a dual system where some subjects were to be administered by the Governor based on Ministerial advice.
