How to use this volume
Solve the paper first, under exam conditions and against the clock. Then read the answers here and mark your own. Reading a solution before attempting the question feels productive and teaches very little, because recognising an answer is not the same as being able to write one.

1.Write any two parliamentary privileges.[2]
Answer
Parliamentary privileges are special rights and immunities enjoyed by each House of Parliament, its members and committees. They let members do their work freely and without fear. Article 105 deals with them for Parliament, and article 194 for State Legislatures. Any two of these answer the question.
- Freedom of speech in Parliament, article 105(1). Members may speak freely in the House, subject to the Constitution and the rules of procedure.
- Immunity from court proceedings, article 105(2). No member is liable in any court for anything said or any vote given in Parliament or its committees.
- Right to publish proceedings. No person is liable for publishing a report or proceeding under the authority of a House.
- Freedom from arrest in civil cases. A member cannot be arrested in a civil case during a session. The protection also runs for forty days before and after it (section 135A, Code of Civil Procedure). There is no such freedom in criminal cases.
- Power to punish for contempt of the House.
A recent limit. In Sita Soren v. Union of India, decided on 4 March 2024, a seven-judge bench limited this immunity. Article 105(2) gives no immunity to a member who takes a bribe to speak or vote. It overruled P.V. Narasimha Rao v. State (CBI/SPE), (1998) 4 SCC 626.
