खालीलपैकी कोणती संसद आणि राज्यविधीमंडळ या दोहोंमध्ये समान प्रक्रिया नाही ?
अ. एखादे विधेयक (अर्थ विधेयक नाही) कोणत्याही सभागृहात पास केले जाते.
ब. अर्थ विधेयक फक्त कनिष्ठ सभागृहात (लोकसभा आणि विधानसभा) प्रथमतः सादर केले जाते.
क. सामान्य विधेयक कोणताही मंत्री अथवा खाजगी सदस्याद्वारे सादर केले जाऊ शकते.
ड. सामान्य विधेयकावरून सभागृहामधील गतिरोधाच्या टप्प्यावर दोन्ही सभागृहांची संयुक्त बैठक होऊ शकते.

The correct answer is Option D (Only D).

Key Points:
• Joint Sitting Comparison - Parliament vs. State Legislature:
• Statement A: True for both bicameral systems. An ordinary bill can originate and pass in either House.
• Statement B: True for both. Money Bills can strictly originate only in the Lower House (Lok Sabha at Centre, Vidhan Sabha in States).
• Statement C: True for both. Ordinary bills can be introduced by either a Minister (Government Bill) or a Private Member.
• Statement D: NOT common to both!
• In Parliament, Article 108 provides for a Joint Sitting of Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha summoned by the President to resolve legislative deadlocks on ordinary bills.
• In State Legislatures, there is NO provision for a joint sitting of Vidhan Sabha and Vidhan Parishad. Under Articles 197 and 198, the Legislative Assembly (Vidhan Sabha) has overriding powers, and the Legislative Council can delay an ordinary bill for a maximum of 4 months (3 months in the first instance and 1 month in the second instance), after which it is deemed passed.
• Hence, statement D is not a common procedure (Option 4).
• Key Takeaway: There is NO provision for a joint sitting in the state legislature to resolve a deadlock; the Legislative Assembly's will ultimately prevails.
