Question

Why can the Lok Sabha control the executive more effectively than the Rajya Sabha can?

Open in App
Solution

Lok Sabha exercises control over the executive more effectively than Rajya Sabha because it is a directly elected body. The Council of Ministers is responsible to Lok Sabha and not the Rajya Sabha.

The Lok Sabha has the power to make laws, ask questions and amend the Constitution.

The Lok Sabha can remove the government by expressing no-confidence but Rajya Sabha cannot remove any government.

Lok Sabha has crucial power in controlling the finances as it can reject money bill but Rajya Sabha cannot reject the money bill.
