    The given scenario follows the delegate model.

    Explanation:

    According to the delegate model of representation, the representatives or the person in the main power doesn't have any option to listen to his wish or to listen to the public. He should only listen to his delegates.

    A delegate is someone who represents the other people and conveys the wish and views of other people. The main representative will do whatever his constituents will ask him to do. This scenario happens in the delegate model of representation.
