In the context of the legislative procedure in Parliament, when a bill is passed by both Houses and presented to the President of India, under which Article can the President return the bill (if it is not a Money Bill) for reconsideration with a message?

💡 Solution & Explanation

Article 111 empowers the President of India to return an ordinary bill with a message for reconsideration by both Houses, though assent becomes mandatory if the bill is passed again with or without amendments. Money bills cannot be returned by the President under this provision because they require prior recommendation before introduction. Executive legislative powers are a standard area of focus in Indian polity evaluations.
