  2. The Government is responsible to the Parliament and can be removed by it
  3. The Government is elected by the people and can be removed by them
  4. The Government is chosen by the Parliament but cannot be removed by it before completion of a fixed term

Answer: B

Explanation

By definition, a parliamentary system of government is one in which the executive is responsible to the legislature. This responsibility means that executive stays in power as long as it enjoys the confidence of the house. The moment, the confidence is lost, it can be removed by Parliament by passing the no-confidence motion. This is is the same feature which hampers the stability of the parliamentary system. Therefore, option (B) is correct answer.
