प्रश्न
Give one reason why it is important for a federal state to have a bicameral legislature.
उत्तर
The term “bicameral legislature” refers to any law-making body of government that consists of two separate houses or chambers, such as the House of Representatives and the House of States. Bicameral legislatures enforce an effective system of checks and balances preventing the enactment of laws unfairly impacting or favoring certain factions of the government or the people in a federal system.
