    Which of the two Houses is more powerful? 

    Answer:

    (i) It might appear that the Rajya Sabha has more power, for it is called 'Upper Chamber' and the Lok Sabha the 'Lower Chamber',

    (iii) Our constitution does give the Rajya Sabha some special powers over tin states. But on most matters the Lok Sabha exercises supreme power.
