Which of the following statements correctly describes the constitutional position of the President of India in relation to the Parliament?

Parliament, Lok Sabha, Rajya Sabha & Legislative Procedure — question ID 1004

Options

A.
B.

Explanation

Under Article 79 of the Constitution of India, the Parliament of the Union consists of the President and the two Houses (the Rajya Sabha and the Lok Sabha). Although the President is not a member of either House of Parliament and does not sit in Parliament for debates (except for ceremonial addresses), they are an integral part of it because no bill passed by both Houses can become law without the President's assent.
