    Question

    Read the following statements (A) and (B) and choose the appropriate option.
    Statement (A) : The terms ‘State’ and ‘Government’ cannot be used interchangeably.
    Statement (B) : Government is responsible for administrating and enforcing laws where as the state refers to a political institution that represents a sovereign people who occupy a definite territory.

    A.

    Both (A) and (B) are true

    B.

    Both (A) and (B) are false

    C.

    (A) is true but (B) is false

    D.

    (A) is false but (B) is true

    Correct option is A

    Statement (A) is true because 'State' and 'Government' are different concepts. The 'State' refers to the whole political entity, including its territory, population, and the concept of sovereignty. The 'Government', on the other hand, is the set of institutions and individuals that administer and govern a state at a given time. Statement (B) correctly distinguishes between the two, making both statements true.
