Answer 1

If the chance was given to me I would choose the Lok Sabha because Lok Sabha is more powerful than the Rajya Sabha.

In the Lok Sabha as the leader of the majority in the Lok Sabha is appointed as a prime minister..

Real powers are with the leader of the majority in the Lok Sabha.

The Lok Sabha can remove the cabinet by passing a vote of no confidence motion.

Money bill can be introduced only in the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha can only delay it for 14 days.
