1. India operates under a republican system - Britain operates under a monarchy: Correctly matched. India is a republic with an elected Head of State, whereas Britain has a hereditary monarchy.
2. India's Parliament has limited powers due to a written Constitution - Britain's Parliament is sovereign: Correctly matched. India's Parliament is constrained by a written Constitution, federalism, judicial review, and protection of fundamental rights, while Britain's Parliament is sovereign with no such written constitution limiting its powers.
3. Prime Minister in India must be a member of the Lok Sabha - Prime Minister in Britain must be a member of the House of Commons: Incorrectly matched. In India, the Prime Minister can be a member of either the Lok Sabha (House of the People) or the Rajya Sabha (Council of States). In Britain, the Prime Minister must be a member of the House of Commons.
4. Ministers in India must be members of Parliament - Non-members cannot serve as ministers in Britain: Incorrectly matched. In India, non-members can serve as ministers for a maximum of six months before they must get elected to either house of Parliament. In Britain, ministers are typically members of Parliament, but the statement is phrased ambiguously.
Thus, only pairs 1 and 2 are correctly matched.
