How can one ensure that the amount authorised for a particular service during a financial year is not altered without proper authorization?
To ensure that the amount authorized for a particular service during a financial year is not altered without proper authorization, one must strictly follow the provisions mentioned in Article 204. According to this article, no amendment can be proposed to any bill in either house of the state legislature that would vary the amount or alter the destination of any grant made for a particular service. The decision of the person presiding as to whether an amendment is inadmissible under this clause shall be final.

Furthermore, Article 205 outlines specific situations where supplementary, additional, or excess grants may be needed and requires that these cases be laid before the House or Houses of the Legislature of the State for approval. This ensures that any changes to the authorized amount must go through a proper legislative process and receive appropriate authorization.
