Advantages of Bicameral legislature
  • 1 answers

Yogita Ingle 6 years, 9 months ago

  1. Inheritance : We inherited out parliamentary system from British. They had two houses - upper house that accommodated aristocracy and imminent people via appointments. And lower house that accommodated the elected representatives. We simply copy-pasted the system with a new constitution to suit Indian citizens.
  2. Decentralization: Bicameral system acts a way to keep power from being concentrated in the hands of one institution. By dividing the power between two houses, it served the purpose of keeping powerplay in check.
  3. To Guard Constitution : In India, the elected representatives have the will of the people behind them. Without Upper house, they could amend Constitution to their liking. The elected representatives are not always competent enough to understand the importance of constitution. Hence, Upper house was constituted to keep unbridled power of elected representatives in check and safeguard the constitution.
