प्रश्न
Answer the question.
Explain three functions of the Lok Sabha.
उत्तर
The three functions of Lok Sabha are as follows:
- The Legislative: All types of bills originate from Lok Sabha and if a bill is passed by Rajya Sabha, it has to come to Lok Sabha for approval. In case of disagreement between the two Houses, the Lok Sabha will prevail in the joint sitting with the Rajya Sabha as it has more members than Rajya Sabha.
- Financial: The Money Bill can be introduced only in Lok Sabha. In case Rajya Sabha disagrees with Lok Sabha in relation to Money Bill, it is up to Lok Sabha to accept or reject the suggestion given by Rajya Sabha.
- Control over Executive: The Council of Ministers is collectively responsible to Lok Sabha, the Lower House of the Parliament. Hence, the government is accountable to the Lok Sabha for its acts. The Lok Sabha can force the Council of Ministers to resign by passing a vote of non-confidence against it. It can also exercise over the central executive through methods like questioning, cut-motions, and debates, budget discussions, moving adjournment motions and call-attention motions, etc.
