Who among followings has power to veto the bill?

Correct option is B

The President of India has the power to veto a bill passed by Parliament. The President can exercise three types of veto powers:

1. Absolute Veto: The bill is rejected outright.
2. Suspensive Veto: The bill is returned for reconsideration.
3. Pocket Veto: The bill is kept pending indefinitely.

Information Booster:

1. The Absolute Veto is often used for private member bills or if the cabinet resigns before the President's approval.
2. Suspensive Veto cannot be applied to money bills.
3. Pocket Veto was famously used by President Zail Singh in 1986 for the Postal Bill.
4. Once both Houses reconsider and pass the bill, the President must give assent (except in case of constitutional amendments).
5. The veto power ensures checks and balances in the legislative process.

Additional Knowledge:

• Vice President: Acts as the Chairman of the Rajya Sabha; does not have veto power.
• House of Representatives: Refers to the lower house in the US Congress, unrelated to Indian polity.
• Chief Justice of India: Heads the judiciary, does not partake in the legislative process.
