Doubt Clearance Thread: UPSC 2021

1. Can prez use pocket veto in case of const. amend. Bill?

2. Prez has abosolute veto power in case of Money bills??

No in the first case, he/she has to give assent to the CA bill. But for money bill, President can either give assent or withhold its assent (absolute veto).


In 1991, the SalaryAllowances, and Pension of Members of Parliament (Amendment) Bill was rejected by the president by absolute veto, but I have doubt, this was a money bill or not?

I guess it is, but please somebody enlighten.

In spectrum, it is given -1913 Surat,1916 Masulipatnam

In Sonali Bansal's book it is -1911 Masulipatnam

on Wikipedia, it is -1913 Surat

confirm from old and New NCERT it should be Surat, they just set a trading centre in Masulipatnam I guess (update here also)

Why does it show that your profile is deleted? 

It's Surat. Masulipatman was set up later.

I was trying to edit it to put a picture of the source but deleted by mistake, and then there was no option to revoke that.
