    How long can the Rajya Sabha detain an ordinary bill?
    Question

    How long can the Rajya Sabha detain an ordinary bill?

    A.

    14 days

    B.

    1 month

    C.

    3 months

    D.

    6 months

    Correct option is A

    The Rajya Sabha can detain an ordinary bill for a maximum period of 14 days. Unlike a Money Bill, which must be passed by the Rajya Sabha within 14 days, an ordinary bill can be delayed for a maximum of 14 days before being returned to the Lok Sabha, with or without amendments. However, the Lok Sabha is not bound to accept the Rajya Sabha’s recommendations in the case of ordinary bills.
