Question
Which among the following does not require a simple
majority?Solution
• A money bill requires a simple majority of all members present and voting in the Lok Sabha to be passed. While the Rajya Sabha can recommend amendments, the Lok Sabha is not bound by these recommendations and can reject them. If the Rajya Sabha does not return the bill within 14 days, it is considered to have been passed by the Parliament. • For the Proclamation of a National Emergency to be approved or continued in India, Parliament requires a special majority in both Houses. This special majority means the resolution must be passed by a majority of the total membership of that House AND by a majority of not less than two-thirds of the members present and voting. • A financial emergency in India, declared by the President under Article 360, requires simple majority (majority of members present and voting) in both Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha for its approval and continuation. This approval must be obtained within two months of the proclamation’s issuance. • To approve President’s Rule in a state, both houses of India’s Parliament must approve the President’s proclamation by a simple majority within two months of its imposition. If the proclamation receives this simple majority approval, it will be in effect for up to six months and can be extended for further six-month periods, though a total duration of three years is the general limit, with special conditions for extensions beyond one year.
