Solution

The correct option is C Both 1 and 2
A Bill pending in the Legislature of a State shall not lapse by reason of the prorogation of the House or Houses . Bill pending in the Legislative Council of a State which has not been passed by the Legislative Assembly shall not lapse on a dissolution of the Assembly.
Both the statement are correct as at the time of prorogation the bill or any other business pending in the House do not get affected and can be resumed when the House meets again. Further, Legislative Council is a permanent body and it do not dissolved, so dissolution of Legislative Assembly do not make the bill lapse.
