Book: Indian Polity by M. Laxmikanth
May be unicameral (Legislative Assembly) or bicameral (Legislative Assembly + Legislative Council). The Assembly, directly elected by people, wields significant legislative powers, controlling the state budget and holding the Council of Ministers accountable. Where present, the Council acts as a revising chamber with limited veto over ordinary bills, lacking direct public mandate. Presiding officers (Speaker/Chairman) ensure procedure and discipline. Legislative sessions, typically convened by the Governor, enable lawmaking on state list matters like agriculture, local governance, and police. Students must note each state’s unique features—some states do not have a Council—reflecting India’s flexible federalism. This structure shapes region-centric policy-making under the overarching constitutional framework.
