When bills concerning national security, interstate infrastructure, or boundary adjustments affecting the North-East region are tabled in Parliament, how does the bicameral structure process them in relation to Arunachal Pradesh's interests?

A. The Lok Sabha alone passes them without Rajya Sabha concurrence
B. Both Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha must pass the bill, with the single Rajya Sabha member representing Arunachal Pradesh participating in debates✓ Correct Answer
C. Only the Governor of Arunachal Pradesh has veto power over parliamentary bills
D. The Arunachal Pradesh Legislative Assembly must ratify all central bills before introduction

💡 Solution & Explanation

Ordinary and financial bills must be passed by both the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha and receive presidential assent to become law, ensuring that representatives from Arunachal Pradesh in both houses participate in national legislative scrutiny. State assemblies do not ratify ordinary central legislation before introduction. The single Rajya Sabha member from Arunachal Pradesh voices state-specific perspectives in the upper house.
