Question of The Day12-04-2020

Which of the following statements is incorrect?

Answer

Correct Answer : a ) All types of bills can be introduced in any house of the Parliament.

Explanation :

All bills (except Finance Bill and Money Bill) can be introduced in any house of the Parliament. Finance Bills and Money Bills can be introduced in the Lok Sabha only.

Article 110 of the Indian Constitution defines Money Bill as the finance bill containing the matters listed in this article like imposition or regulation of any tax, withdrawal of funds from the Consolidated Fund of India, etc.

Prior recommendation of the President is required for introducing Finance Bill and Money Bill.

In the case of money bill, Rajya Sabha has limited powers. It cannot reject or amend the money bill and can retain the bill only for 14 days, after which it is considered to be passed by both the houses.

Hence, (a) is the correct answer.
