- The Lok Sabha has adopted a resolution to refer the constitutional amendment bills for holding Lok Sabha and assembly elections simultaneously to a Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC).
- This JPC will have a total of 39 members, with 27 from the Lok Sabha and 12 from the Rajya Sabha.
- It will be headed by the BJP MP PP Chaudhary.
- A Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) is set up by the Parliament for a special purpose, like the detailed scrutiny of a subject or Bill.
- As the name suggests, it has members from both the Houses and from the ruling parties and the opposition.
- It is dissolved after its term ends or its task has been completed.
- The recommendations of a JPC are not binding on the government.
- The government can choose to launch further investigations based on what the JPC has said, but it can’t be forced to do so.
