Question

Which among the following Veto powers is NOT granted to the President?

• A. Pocket Veto
• B. Absolute Veto
• C. Suspensive Veto
• D. Qualified Veto

Answer 1

The correct option is D Qualified Veto

The veto power enjoyed by the executive in modern states can be classified into the following four types:-

• Absolute veto, that is, withholding of assent to the bill passed by the legislature.
• Qualified veto, which can be overridden by the legislature with a higher majority.
• Suspensive veto, which can be over ridden by the legislature with an ordinary majority.
• Pocket veto, that is, taking no action on the bill passed by the legislature.

Indian Constitution does not provide for suspensive veto to President.
