3. The Finance Minister has absolute powers to pass the Money Bill.
Select the answer using the code given below.
Correct
The correct answer is: (a) 1 only
Explanation:
As per Article 110(5) of the Indian Constitution, a Money Bill passed by the Lok Sabha shall be transmitted to the Rajya Sabha for its recommendations. The Rajya Sabha must return the Bill within 14 days, with or without recommendations. If it does not return the Bill within 14 days, it is deemed to have been passed by both Houses.
The Lok Sabha is not bound to accept the recommendations of the Rajya Sabha. Even if the Rajya Sabha suggests amendments, the Lok Sabha can reject them and still consider the Bill passed.
The Finance Minister does not have absolute powers to pass the Money Bill. The President of India decides whether a Bill is a Money Bill (as per Article 110(3)), and it must be introduced only in the Lok Sabha. It is then subject to the legislative process as outlined in the Constitution.
