TestCracker Session # 56 GSS The Parliament of India
IAS
Prelims
2013
SPECIAL POWERS OF THE LOK SABHA
There are certain powers which are constitutionally granted to the Lok Sabha and not to the Rajya Sabha.
These powers are:
 The Money and the Financial Bills can only originate in the Lok Sabha.
 In case of a Money Bill, the Rajya Sabha has only the right to make recommendations and the Lok
Sabha may or may not accept the recommendation. Also, a Money Bill must be passed by Rajya
Sabha within a period of 14 days. Otherwise, the Bill shall be automatically deemed to be passed
by the House. Thus, the Lok Sabha enjoys exclusive legislative jurisdiction over the passage of
the Money Bills.
 The Council of Ministers are only responsible to the Lok Sabha and hence the Confidence and the No-
Confidence motions can be introduced in Lok sabha only.
What will follow if a Money Bill is substantially amended by the Rajya Sabha?
(a) The Lok Sabha may still proceed with the Bill, accepting or not accepting the
recommendations of the Rajya Sabha
(b) The Lok Sabha cannot consider the Bill further
(c) The Lok Sabha may send the Bill to the Rajya Sabha for reconsideration

TestCracker Session # 96 GSS Special Compilation (History)
IAS
Prelims
2013
Tebhaga Revolt
The Tebhaga movement arose in North Bengal for the reduction in share of
produce from one-half to one-third as the rent by Bargadars to the Jotedars. In
Bengal, between the Zamindar and direct peasant producers, there came into being a number
of intermediaries such as the Jotedars. These Jotedars in turn used to sublet their land to
Bargadars or the share croppers who cultivated the land and used to pay a part (one-half) of
the produce known as „adhi‟ or „bhag‟ to Jotedars.
The demand for the Tebhaga Peasant Movement in Bengal was for
(a) the reduction of the share of the landlords from one-half of the crop to one-third
(b) the grant of ownership of land to peasants as they were the actual cultivators of
the land
(c) the uprooting of Zamindari system and the end of serfdom
(d) writing off all peasant debts
