Complete answer:
Now let us analyze the given options:
Option A) A powerful and independent judiciary is essential for democracy. The Indian Judiciary is such an example of an integrated judiciary as it contains the Supreme Court for an entire nation, High Courts in the states and the district courts for the local level. Power is distributed according to its levels. Hence this option is correct
Option B) In India all three systems are equal. They all have a different set of responsibilities and are guided by the constitution. Hence this option is incorrect
Option C) Supreme court and parliament both are the pillars of democracy and they both are responsible for its stability. On one hand, where parliament makes rules, the supreme court interprets them to the people and maintains law and order in the society. Hence this option is Incorrect
Option D) The chief justice of India is the chief judge of the supreme court of India and the highest working personnel in the Indian Federal Judiciary. The President of India appoints judges of high courts and the supreme court. The chief justice serves till the age of sixty-five or can be removed by impeachment. Hence this option is incorrect.

Therefore correct option is (A). India has an integrated Judiciary is true about the Indian Judiciary.

Note: Judicial administration in the country is controlled by the supreme court of India. The Indian Judicial system is totally managed and administered by officers of judicial service unlike in the past when civil service officers also were part of the judicial system.
