                        Question 35.
                        \nExplain the composition, powers, and functions of Lok Sabha.
                        \nAnswer:
                        \n1. Legislative functions:
                        \nThe power of Loksabha extends to all subjects falling under the Union list and the Concurrent list. In case of emergency in operation its power also extends to State list as well. No bill can become a law without the consent of Loksabha. The Loksabha has equal powers of law making with Rajyasabha except on financial matters where the supremacy of Loksabha is total.<\/p>\n

                        In case of disagreement between the two houses on a matter of legislation, it is resolved by a Joint Sitting of both the houses presided over by the Speaker. In a Joint Sitting, Loksabha would emerge triumphant because the decisions are taken by a majority of the total number of members of both the house present and voting in which the numerical superiority of Loksabha prevails.<\/p>\n

                        2. Financial functions:
                        \nOn financial matters, the supremacy of the Loksabha is total and complete. \u201cOne, who holds purse, holds power\u201d said James Madison. By establishing its authority over the national purse, Loksabha establishes its authority over the Rajyasabha.<\/p>\n

                        It is expressly stated that Money bill can originate only in the house of people. Regarding budget, Loksabha being a representative house enjoys total authority. Loksabha\u2019s position on financial matters is such that the demands for grants are placed only before the Loksabha.<\/p>\n

                        3. Control over the executive:
                        \nThe Loksabha enjoys direct control over the executive because; executive is directly responsible to the lower house and stays in office as long as it enjoys the confidence of the house. The Loksabha not only makes laws but also supervises the implementation. The lower house being a debating house, the members are free to seek information from the executive and raise questions and seek clarifications.<\/p>\n

                        The members can effectively seek information from the government by way of discussions and debates during the Question Hour (seek clarification), the Adjournment Motion (raises issues of national importance), the Zero Hour, the Cu motion, the Call-attention motion, etc. The soundest way of controlling the executive is by way of moving the No-confidence motion, if the executive fails to win the support of Lok sabha, they must step down.<\/p>\n

                        4. Constituent functions:
                        \nThe Loksabha shares equal powers in regard to amending provisions of the constitution. An amendment may be initiated either in the Rajyasabha or Loksabha and must be passed by a 2\/3 majority in both the houses present and voting. The agreement of Rajyasabha is compulsory for the success of constitutional amendment.<\/p>\n

                        5. Electoral functions:
                        \nThe Loksabha and Rajyasabha elect the highest constitutional functionaries such as the President and the Vice-president. The President is elected by the members of Loksabha and Rajyasabha along with the members of Legislative Assemblies of the states. The Vice-president is elected by members of Loksabha and Rajyasabha.<\/p>\n

                        6. Judicial functions:
                        \nThe Loksabha acts as a judge in the impeachment of the President. Either house can prefer the charge of impeachment. If Rajyasabha prefers the charge, Loksabha investigates the charge and if it passes a resolution by a 2\/3 majority of the total membership of the house, President stands impeached from the office.<\/p>\n

                        He Loksabha also sits in Judgement, along with the Rajyasabha, in removing high constitutional functionaries such as the Comptroller and Auditor General, The Chief Vigilance Commissioner, the Chief Election Commissioner etc.<\/p>\n

                        Question 36.
                        \nExplain the meaning and features of democratic government.
                        \nAnswer:
                        \nThe word \u201cDemocracy\u201d is a derivative of Greek words \u2018Demos\u2019 and \u2018Kratie\u2019 meaning \u2018people\u2019 and \u2018rule\u2019 respectively. Thus, democracy is the rule of the people.
                        \nFeatures of Democratic Government:
                        \nThe following features can be identified by democratic form of government.<\/p>\n

                        1. Democracy is based on freedom and openness;<\/li>\n
                        2. Democracy thrives on majority opinion;<\/li>\n

                          Question 37.
                          \nExplain the role, powers, and functions of the Prime Minister of India.
                          \nAnswer:
                          \nThe powers and function of the Prime minister are detailed below:
                          \n1. Formation of Ministry:
                          \nThe primary task of the Prime minister on assuming office is the formation of Council of ministers. Normally ministers are picked from the same political formation to ensure uniformity and continuity of policy. However, nothing prevents Prime minister from picking anyone as minister.<\/p>\n

                          2. Allocation of Portfolios:
                          \nAfter forming the ministry the next important task is allocation of responsibilities to ministers. Certain key or heavyweight portfolios such as Home, Defence, Finance, Commerce and Industry, External affairs etc., are to be given to party heavyweights who enjoy a good clout and following among the party workers. Also to ensure efficiency and stability of the government. Prime minister enjoys the power of expanding and reforming the ministry.<\/p>\n

                          3. Chairman of the Cabinet:
                          \nThe cabinet meetings are held under the chairmanship of the Prime minister. The Cabinet is a deliberating forum and differences may come up. It is the responsibility of Prime minister to mediate and soften things and arrive at decisions. The Prime minister has the authority to decide the matters to be taken up by the cabinet and may accept or reject proposals.<\/p>\n

                          Normally the proposals brought by ministers for discussion are not rejected. In the era of coalition politics it is a challenge for the Prime minister to hold the flock together. It is very difficult to chair a Cabinet full of divergent views, ideologies and principles. For example, for the last fifteen years we are a witness to pulls and pressures exerted on the Prime minister from different alliance partners.<\/p>\n

                          4. Leader of Lok Sabha:
                          \nPrime minister is the leader of Lok sabha. All major decisions and announcements of the government are made by the Prime minister. It is the responsibility of the Prime minister to ensure that all bills brought before Lok sabha for approval are passed. And he has to defend the government on the floor of the house.<\/p>\n

                          Though ministers are individually responsible to their ministries, it is the Prime minister who provides general leadership and direction. If any minister makes a mistake, the Prime minister has the power to guide and correct him.<\/p>\n

                          5. Leader of the Government:
                          \nThe decisions of the government however good, are subjected to scrutiny and criticism. The Prime minister, as leader of the government has to defend policies and programmes of the government both in and out of parliament.<\/p>\n

                          6. Co-ordination and Supervision:
                          \nIn running the administrative machinery Prime minister will have to encounter numerous problems ranging from routine to serious. Under the circumstances it is essential to integrate different departments and see that they work smoothly and the ability of the Prime minister is tested on this count. A Prime minister should not only pick a team but also retain it as a team till the end of the term.<\/p>\n

                          Whenever problems arise between departments, he has to meditate and sort it out amicably through dialogue and goodwill. The Prime minster is the general head of the government. Hence he has the responsibility of supervising the administration. Though each Minister is in charge of a ministry, lack of general supervision results in poor administrative quality.<\/p>\n

                          To maintain quality in administration, the Prime minister will have to supervise. It not only gives him a general feel of the administration but also makes the ministers more responsible. The Prime Minister may correct the working of a particular ministry and offer suggestions.<\/p>\n

                          7. Bridge between the President and the Parliament:
                          \nThe Prime minister acts as a link between President and Parliament In a parliamentary government. As all executives powers are vested in the hands of the President, the Prime minister is duty bound to keep the President informed about the decisions taken by the government.<\/p>\n

                          Also, the President himself can call for any information from the government. The Prime minister not only acts as a bridge but also as the, advisor to the President. Whenever necessary the President will look forward for advice. For example, the President seeks the advice of Prime minister before dissolving Loksabha.<\/p>\n
