Question
Which of the following statements is/are correct?1. A Bill pending in the Lok Sabha lapses on its prorogation.2. A Bill pending in the Rajya Sabha, which has not been passed by the Lok Sabha, shall not lapse on dissolution of the Lok Sabha.Select the correct answer using the code given below.Select one:a. 1 onlyb. Both 1 and 2c. 2 onlyd. Neither 1 nor 2
Solution
The correct answer is c. 2 only.
Here's why:
-
A Bill pending in the Lok Sabha does not lapse on its prorogation. Prorogation is merely a discontinuation of the session of the Parliament, not a dissolution of the Lok Sabha itself. Therefore, the statement is incorrect.
-
A Bill pending in the Rajya Sabha, which has not been passed by the Lok Sabha, shall not lapse on dissolution of the Lok Sabha. This is because the Rajya Sabha is a permanent body and is not subject to dissolution. Only those bills which have been passed by the Lok Sabha and are pending in the Rajya Sabha lapse on dissolution of the Lok Sabha. Therefore, the statement is correct.
