A) The President may call a joint sitting for passing the Bill
B) The Lok Sabha may send the Bill to the Rajya Sabha for reconsideration
C) The Lok Sabha cannot consider the Bill further
D) The Lok Sabha may still proceed with the Bill, accepting or not accepting the recommendations of the Rajya Sabha
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
[d] Under Article 109 (1), a Money Bill cannot be introduced in Rajya Sabha. Once passed by Lok Sabha, it is sent to Rajya Sabha - along with the Speaker's certificate that it is a Money Bill - for its recommendations. Rajya Sabha cannot reject or amend the Bill, and must return it within 14 days, after which Lok Sabha may accept or reject its recommendations. In either case, the Bill is deemed to have been passed by both Houses. Under Article 109(5), if Rajya Sabha fails to return the Bill to Lok Sabha within 14 days, it is deemed to have been passed anyway.
