Explanation:

Explanation: When the Lok Sabha is dissolved: ? a Bill pending in Rajya Sabha which has not been passed by the Lok Sabha does not lapse; ? a Bill pending in the Lok Sabha lapses; ? a Bill passed by the Lok Sabha but pending in the Rajya Sabha lapses, but it would not lapse if in respect of it a joint session of the two Houses had already been called by the President. A joint sitting of the two Houses may still be held in spite of the dissolution of Lok Sabha, if it has been convened already before Lok Sabha stands dissolved. ? A Bill passed by both Houses but pending assent of the President does not lapse with the dissolution of the Lok Sabha. Dissolution of the House does not wipe out contempt proceedings in the House. The new House constituted after election can punish for contempt of the House dissolved.
