1. A Bill pending in the Lok Sabha lapses on its prorogation |
2. A Bill pending in Rajya Sabha, which has not been passed by the Lok Sabha, shall not lapse on dissolution of the Lok Sabha. |
A) 1 only
B) 2 only
C) Both 1 and 2
D) Neither 1 nor 2
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
prorogation doesn't affect the bills of any other business pending before the house so 1st statement is wrong. Ref. Disha Polity Compendium Page P-54. A bill pending in the Rajya Sabha but not passed by the Lok Sabha does not lapse if the president has notified the holding of a joint sitting before the dissolution of Lok Sabha. So, statement 2 is right.You need to login to perform this action.
