In which of the following areas does the Rajya Sabha share equal power and constitutional status with the Lok Sabha?

Question

Accepted Answer

Under Article 368 of the Constitution of India, a Constitutional Amendment Bill can be introduced in either House of Parliament. It must be passed by each House individually by a special majority (a majority of the total membership of that House and by a majority of not less than two-thirds of the members of that House present and voting). There is no provision for a joint sitting of Parliament in case of a deadlock on such a bill, giving both Houses equal powers. Conversely, All-India Services (Article 312) is an exclusive power of Rajya Sabha, while Money Bills and No-Confidence motions are exclusive domains of the Lok Sabha.
