Answer 2

President presides over the meeting of Joint Session.

— True

Reason :

In the case of the first session after each general election to the Lok Sabha, the President addresses both the Houses of Parliament assembled together after the members are sworn in or affirmed and elected the Speaker. These initial formalities usually take two days to complete. No other work is done until the President addresses both Houses of Parliament assembled together and the Parliament is told the reasons for its call. In the case of the first session of each year, the President's address is at the time and date notified for the Session of both the Houses of Parliament. Half an hour after the expiry of the address, the two Houses hold separate meetings in their respective Houses and a copy of the President's Address is laid on the Table of the House and included in the proceedings of each House.
