Subject: Polity
Book: Indian Polity by M. Laxmikanth
A bicameral legislature comprising the President, Lok Sabha (House of the People), and Rajya Sabha (Council of States). Lok Sabha members are directly elected, reflecting popular will, whereas Rajya Sabha members are indirectly chosen by state legislative assemblies. The President summons and prorogues sessions, and can dissolve the Lok Sabha on the advice of the Prime Minister. Parliament legislates on subjects in the Union and Concurrent Lists, scrutinizes government functioning through debates and committee reviews, and holds the executive accountable via question hour and motions. Understanding Parliament’s composition clarifies how representative democracy operates at the national level.
