Not most of the important laws like President assent before their introduction. Hence statement 1 in not correct. • The Constitution is the fundamental law of the land in our country. It has defined the authority and jurisdiction of all the three organs of the Union government and the nature of interrelationship between them. Hence, the Parliament has to operate within the limits prescribed by the Constitution. Hence statement 2 is correct.
