[amp_mcq option1=”Lok Sabha, Rajya Sabha and Legislature of related State” option2=”Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha both” option3=”Rajya Sabha” option4=”Lok Sabha” correct=”option2″]
The correct answer is: B. Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha both
The Constitution of India, in its Seventh Schedule, lists the subjects that are to be under the jurisdiction of the Union (Central) Government and the subjects that are to be under the jurisdiction of the State Governments. The subjects that are not mentioned in either of these lists are to be under the concurrent jurisdiction of both the Union and the State Governments.
If Parliament has to legislate with respect to a matter in the State List, the proposal for such legislation must be approved by both the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha. This is because the Rajya Sabha represents the States, and it is important to ensure that the States are on board with any legislation that is being passed by the Union Government.
The other options are incorrect because they do not take into account the role of the Rajya Sabha in the legislative process. Option A is incorrect because it includes the Legislature of the related State, which is not required to approve the proposal. Option C is incorrect because it only includes the Rajya Sabha, which is not enough to pass a law. Option D is incorrect because it only includes the Lok Sabha, which is not enough to pass a law.
