Question

Who presides over the joint session of the two Houses of Indian Parliament?
a. Deputy chairman of Rajya Sabha
b. President and Speaker as the situation may be
c. Vice-President and Speaker as the situation may be
d. Speaker

Answer 1

Hint:
Article 108 of the Constitution of India allows for a joint sitting of both Houses of Parliament.
India's parliament is bicameral. In order to pass any law, both the Houses (Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha) must consent. The bill must be passed by both upper and lower houses before it receives the President’s assent. A moderator is required to facilitate the flow of speeches.

Step by step answer:
 Parliament’s joint sitting is permitted by the Indian constitution. The potential of deadlock conditions between both houses was already foreseen by the constitution’s founding father. Henceforth, they thought of an authoritative method to battle the circumstance as joint sitting. A joint sitting of Parliament is gathered by the President through article 108. He is welcome to the joint meeting. The Speaker is needed to direct a joint sitting. In the event that he/she is missing, it is led by the Deputy Speaker of Lok Sabha. In the latter’s absence, the responsibility is passed on to the Deputy Speaker of Rajya Sabha. If any of the individuals referred to above are not eligible, any Member of Parliament (MP) may preside over the sitting by consent of both Houses. The quorum is required to represent a joint sitting- 1/10 of the total number of members of the House.

So, the correct option is

Note A joint session can then be held when:
The bill is approved by one House and forwarded to the other House –
The other House rejects the bill.
The Houses are not in accordance with the changes made to the bill or
More than six months have expired since the bill was received by the other House without it being approved. The President will then convene a joint sitting until the bill has expired due to the dissolution of the Lok Sabha.
