    Describe briefly the procedure that is followed before a bill is sent to the President for his assent.

    Answer:

    A bill is first introduced in a house by a member and copies of the bill are distributed among all the members. This is called the first reading of the bill. During the second reading, the members discuss the bill and suggest changes. The final form of the bill is put to vote during the third reading. If the majority of the members support the bill, it is sent to the other house, where the same procedure is followed. If the bill is passed by the other house, it goes to the President. If the second house suggests changes, the bill goes back to the first house. If the two houses disagree, the bill is put to vote in a joint session of the two houses.
