What happens to a pending Bill in the Council of States after the dissolution of the House of the People?
If after a Bill, which is pending in the Council of States and has not been passed by the House of the People, the House of the People stands dissolved, then that Bill shall not lapse. It will continue to be pending in the Council of States. This means that the pending Bill does not cease to exist or lose its importance just because the House of the People (the lower house of Parliament) is dissolved. The bill will remain in limbo until a new government is formed and the House of the People is constituted again. At that time, the pending bill can be taken up for discussion and passing in the newly constituted House of the People.
