rt of this resolution. An important point to be remembered while passing a resolution that a notice of the intention of resolution should be given before 14 days.
Now imagine a condition when there is a vacancy in seat of Chairman of the Legislative Council. Then, the question which would strike us would be related to the replacement of his/ her place in the Legislative Council or who will look after the working of the Legislative Council. The answer to the second part of the question is given in Article 184 of the Indian Constitution. According to this Article, the Deputy Chairman has the power to perform the duties and to act as Chairman of the Legislative Council. According to Article 184, if there is a vacancy in the office of Chairman then all duties of Chairman would be performed by the Deputy Chairman and in case if the office of Deputy Chairman is also vacant then the duties of Chairman would be performed by the person appointed by the Governor.
Talking about Article 185 of the Indian Constitution, it puts certain restrictions on Chairman or Vice-Chairman when their impeachment resolution is under consideration. It simply tells that a Chairman or Vice-Chairman can not preside the Council when the resolution for their impeachment is under consideration. Here in this condition, Article 184 will be applied. Also, it is given in Article 185 that when such resolution is under consideration then the Chairman has all the right to attend the proceedings of the Legislative Council and he/she will have all the right to speak during such proceedings. Here, the Chairman has the right to vote in the first instance of the proceedings but he/she will not be able to vote in the condition of equality of votes.
Legislative Procedure: Article 196
The main purpose of Legislature is to make laws, pass a bill etc. To understand the working of Legislature or Legislative Procedure let us first discuss the term “Bill”. By Bill, we mean a draft of the legislative proposal. This bill after getting assent from both the Houses of Legislature becomes an Act after getting assent from the Governor. Article 196 of the Indian Constitution tells us about the provisions of the introduction and passing of the Bill. Except for the Money Bill and the Financial Bill ( procedure of passage of these bills are given in Article 198 and 207), the other bills can be introduced in either Houses of the legislature. Any bill is said to be passed only when it got assent from both the Houses of the legislature. Here both the Houses should agree on the amendment made to the bill. A bill would not lapse when it is pending in the House and there is the prorogation of that House. A bill pending in the Legislative Council of any state which is not passed by the Legislative Assembly shall not lapse even on the dissolution of the Legislative Assembly. Also, there is a condition mentioned in Article 196 which states that if there is a bill pending in the assembly and at that time the assembly dissolute, then the bill will also lapse ultimately. The bill will also lapse if it is passed by the assembly and is pending by the Council.
The provision or the procedure related to Ordinary Bill is discussed in Article 196 of the Indian Constitution. The main purpose of the State Legislature is law-making as already being discussed in this article earlier. The legislature can make laws on State List as well as on Concurrent List. Ordinary Bill can be introduced in either of the Houses. The process given in Article 196 is applied here and once it gets the sign from the Governor it becomes law. The Governor has the power to issue ordinance when there is a need of any law and the legislature is not in session.
A Money Bill is a bill that is concerned with government spending or taxation. The procedure to pass a Money Bill is quite different from the Ordinary Bill. Its procedure is given in Article 198 of the Indian Constitution. According to this Article of the Constitution of India, the Money Bill can only be introduced in the Lower House i.e. in Legislative Assembly. After the Mone
