what are the major functions and powers of vidhan parishad
Answers
Answer:
Function
The most important function of the Legislative Assembly is to act as the highest law making organ of the state. In unicameral state Legislatures all bills on subjects in the state list are initiated and passed by this House before transmission to the Governor for his assent. In bicameral state Legislatures the Legislate Council cannot initiate money bills. Ordinary bills may be raised in either House
Powers
The Assembly has powers over the state purse. The budget and indeed all money bills are initiated in and passed by the Assembly with the previous sanction of the Governor. The Council in bicameral State Legislatures may only delay a money bill by 14 days.
The Assembly has some other exclusive powers. The M.L.A.’s only take part in the election of the President. Only the Assembly takes part in constitution amendments where approval by the state legislatures is a constitutional requirement. The Assembly alone considers the reports of the Public Service Commission of the State and also of the Comptroller and Auditor General.
