Bill Lapsing


Firstly we do the word by word analysis,
Statement 1
Most important word is PROROGATION.
So what is prorogation?  In layman terms Prorogation means ending the entire session of the parliament not any day of the session.

Next thing we have to know is that Prorogation is not the end of the house, mostly same MPs will be occupying the seats when they come for the next session. So there is no point in bill lapsing after a PROROGATION (because it is not dissolution)
So statement 1 is wrong

Statement 2
Most important word is DISSOLUTION of Loksabha.
Dissolution means the entire lower house is about to change, new MPs are about to come means new legislations are about to come.
Here the bill originated in Rajya Sabha it has not touched the Loksabha. So there is no point in ‘lapsing’ that bill as Rajya Sabha is a permanent house and it can give the same bill to new coming Loksabha.

So statement 2 is Correct

So our answer is B

And thank God they didn’t involve the president in the question, basically any bill that touches the President DOES NOT LAPSE.
I will suggest you to read Laxmikanth- Chapter Parliament – Sessions of Parliament (22.11 wrt to 4th Edition)

Obvious answer would be to bring rural population into the banking fold (Banking Inclusion) so that people can park their excess money in the bank and get an interest. At the same time RBI cannot make it like a normal bank. So there will be limitations. If you them directly it would be “non thinker” question. For those who don’t know it, this question that you should not leave but give a calculated guess. So when I read the 2 nd and 3 rd statement I find them contradicting to each other.  Look in 2 nd statement it says it can issue credit cards and in 3 rd it says in it cannot give loan. If a bank can issue a credit card it should be eligible to lend money. Either one of them is correct. 2 and 3 cannot exist together Option D out. Now statement 1 is talking about big players,...
