Article 263 of Indian constitution contemplates the establishment of an Inter-State Council to effect coordination between the states and between Centre and states. The President can establish such a council if at any time it appears to him that the public interest would be served by its establishment. The National Development Council (NDC) was established in August 1952 by an executive resolution of the Government of India on the recommendation of the first five year plan (draft outline).

The term ‘preamble’ refers to the introduction or preface to the constitution. It contains the summary or essence of the constitution. The preamble is neither a source of power to legislature not a prohibition upon the power of legislature. It is non-justiciable, that is its provisions are not enforceable in the courts of law. Like any part of the constitution, preamble was also enacted by the constituent assembly, but, after the rest of the constitution was already enacted. The reason for inserting the preamble at the end was to ensure that it was in conformity with the constitution as adopted by the constituent assembly. While forwarding the preamble for votes, the president of the constituent assembly said, ‘The question is that Preamble stands part of the Constitution’. The motion was then accepted.

The constituent assembly was constituted in Nov 1946 under the scheme formulated by the Cabinet Mission Plan. Total strength of assembly was 389. Of these, 296 seats were to be allotted to British India and 93 seats to Princely states. Each province and princely state (or group of states in case of small states) were to be allotted seats in proportion to their respective population. Seat allocation to each British province were to be decided among the three principal communities – Muslims, Sikhs and general (all except Muslims and Sikhs), in proportion to their population. The representatives of each community were to be elected by members of that community in the provincial legislative assembly and voting was to be by the method of proportional representation by means of single transferable vote. The representatives of princely states were to be nominated by the heads of princely states. Thus constituent assembly was to be partly elected and partly nominated body. Moreover, the members were to be indirectly elected by the members of provincial assemblies.

The Constitution lays down a special procedure for the passing of money bills in the Parliament. A money bill can only be introduced in the Lok Sabha and that too on the recommendation of the president. Every such bill is considered to be a government bill and can be introduced only by a minister. After a money bill is passed by the Lok Sabha, it is transmitted to the Rajya Sabha for its consideration. The Rajya Sabha has restricted powers with regard to a money bill. It cannot reject or amend a money bill. It can only make the recommendations. It must return the bill to the Lok Sabha within 14 days, wither with or without recommendations. The Lok Sabha can either accept or reject all or any of the recommendations of the Rajya Sabha. If the Lok Sabha accepts any recommendation, the bill is then deemed to have been passed by both the Houses in the modified form. If the Lok Sabha does not accept any recommendation, the bill is then deemed to have passed by both the Houses in the form originally passed by the Lok Sabha without any change. If the Rajya Sabha does not return the bill to the Lok Sabha within 14 days, the bill is deemed to have been passed by both the Houses in the form originally passed by the Lok Sabha. Thus, the Lok Sabha has more powers than Rajya Sabha with regard to a money bill. On the other hand, both the Houses have equal powers with regard to an ordinary bill. Finally, when a money bill is presented to the president, he may either give his assent to the bill or withhold his assent to the bill but cannot return the bill for reconsideration of the Houses
