Correct Answer: (2)
Solution : The sentence can be improved using the second option.
The original sentence, "India has steadfastly maintained its parliamentary democracy of independence", contains a prepositional error.
To correctly convey that India has maintained its parliamentary democracy since the time of gaining independence, one should use since to indicate a starting point in time.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "India has steadfastly maintained its parliamentary democracy since independence."
