Answer
Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are correct but Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A).
Explanation — India has a parliamentary government, where the executive is accountable to the legislature. The Parliament is bicameral, with the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha. Though both statements are true, having two Houses does not explain why India follows a parliamentary system.
