Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: C

Explanation

Both statements are correct based on the special procedure for Money Bills under Article 109 of the Constitution of India.

  • Statement I: According to Article 109(1), a Money Bill shall not be introduced in the Rajya Sabha (Council of States). It can only be introduced in the Lok Sabha on the recommendation of the President.
  • Statement II: After a Money Bill is passed by the Lok Sabha, it is transmitted to the Rajya Sabha. The Rajya Sabha has restricted powers; it cannot reject or amend the bill. It must return the bill within 14 days with its recommendations. The Lok Sabha may either accept or reject these recommendations. If the Rajya Sabha does not return the bill within 14 days, it is deemed to have been passed by both Houses in the form originally passed by the Lok Sabha.
