Consider an ordinary bill that originated in the legislative assembly and is sent to the legislative council. If the council rejects the bill then
a joint sitting is called.
the bill ends and becomes dead
legislative assembly passes the bill for the second time.
none of the above
Explanation:
c) legislative assembly passes the bill for the second time. The legislative assembly can override the legislative council by passing the bill for the second time and not vice versa. The mechanism of passing the bill for the second time to resolve a deadlock applies to a bill originating in the legislative assembly only. When a bill, which has originated in the legislative council and sent to the legislative assembly, is rejected by the latter, the bill ends and becomes dead. The Constitution does not provide for the mechanism of joint sitting of two Houses of the state legislature to resolve a deadlock between them over the passage of a bill.
