Solution

The correct option is A Legislative Council has the power to pass the 'No Confidence' Motion.
Just like the Union Parliament, the relationship between the two State Houses is unequal. The Legislative Assembly holds more power than the Legislative Council. In all three cases: legislative, finances and executive, the Lower House holds more power. It can pass a bill even if the Legislative Council disagrees. It controls the finances of a state and it can pass the 'No Confidence' Motion.
