Question

Accepted Answer

Under Article 67 of the Indian Constitution, a resolution for the removal of the Vice-President can only be initiated in the Rajya Sabha, making statement 1 correct. Under Article 249, the Rajya Sabha can pass a resolution by a special majority authorizing the Parliament to legislate on subjects in the State List in the national interest, making statement 2 correct. Rajya Sabha cannot amend or reject a Money Bill; it can only make recommendations, meaning statement 3 is incorrect.
