Q. Consider the following statements:
1.The parliament can make a law from state list if Rajya Sabha Passes a Resolution.
2.This provision does restrict the power of a state legislature to make laws on the same matter.
Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Answer: A
Notes:
Explanation: If the Rajya Sabha declares that it is necessary in the national interest that Parliament should make laws with respect to goods and services tax or a matter in the State List, then the Parliament becomes competent to make laws on that matter.
This provision does not restrict the power of a state legislature to make laws on the same matter. But, in case of inconsistency between a state law and a parliamentary law, the latter is to prevail.
