Question

Most of the states of India have opted for uni-cameral legislature. State four disadvantages of having just one house of legislature.

Answer 1

• Lack of Second Opinion: There is no second house to review or revise bills, so errors may go unchecked.
• Hasty Laws: Laws may be passed too quickly without deep discussion or scrutiny.
• Less Representation: Fewer opportunities for experts, minorities, or smaller communities to have a voice.
• Possibility of Ruling Party Domination: With only one house, the ruling party may easily push its decisions without much opposition.
