If Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha differ on an ordinary Bill, what does a joint sitting do in democracy?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It resolves deadlock and moves the legislative process forward

Correct answer: A. An ordinary Bill normally needs approval by both Houses. If the Houses disagree, or one House rejects the Bill or keeps it pending for the constitutionally relevant period, a deadlock may arise. In such a situation, the Constitution provides for a joint sitting of Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha, presided over by the Speaker of Lok Sabha, so that members of both Houses can debate and vote together. This mechanism can help the legislative process move forward. B is wrong because a Money Bill cannot be introduced in Rajya Sabha. C is wrong because a joint sitting has no power to dissolve the Supreme Court. D is wrong because the Election Commission does not receive law-making power through it. Memory cue: joint sitting is for an ordinary-Bill deadlock.
