Why can the Speaker's power to certify a Money Bill be considered sensitive?

Correct answer: Because it limits Rajya Sabha's role

Correct answer: A. A Money Bill follows a special constitutional route. It can be introduced only in Lok Sabha, and Rajya Sabha has a limited role: it may make recommendations within the prescribed period, but Lok Sabha may accept or reject them. The Speaker’s certification determines whether a bill is treated as a Money Bill for this purpose. Because that classification affects the extent of Rajya Sabha’s participation, the power is institutionally sensitive. Option A is correct because certification can limit the second House’s role in the bill’s passage. Option B is wrong: certification does not dissolve Lok Sabha. Option C is unrelated; it does not change the office of the President or Prime Minister. Option D is wrong because certification does not transfer law-making power to the judiciary. The sensitivity does not mean the Speaker can ignore the Constitution; the bill must meet the constitutional requirements of a Money Bill. Memory cue: “Certification decides the route; the route decides Rajya Sabha’s space.”
