The basic function of the Parliament is to make laws, amend them or repeal them. The process of law making or the legislative process, in relation to the Parliament, may be defined as the process by which a legislative proposal brought before it, is translated into the law of the land. All legislative proposals are brought before the Parliament in the form of Bills. A Bill is a statute in the draft form and cannot become law unless it has received the approval of both the Houses of the parliament and the assent of the President of India. The process of law making begins with the introduction of a Bill in either House of the Parliament. - Reproduced.
