  • A Elite
  • B Citizens
  • C Party caucus
  • D Vocal few
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Government exercises political power on behalf of the citizens. In a democratic system, the government is entrusted with authority to act in the public interest, provide services, maintain order, and protect rights. It does not rule for the benefit of a small elite, a party caucus, or a vocal few. The legitimacy of government derives from the consent of the governed.
