Explanation: If a bill has been rejected by any house of the parliament and if more than six months have elapsed, the President may summon a joint session for purpose of passing the bill. The bill is passed by a simple majority of a joint sitting. There is no such provision of Joint sitting with assemblies of state legislature. State legislatures have overriding powers on legislative councils. So if a bill has not been approved by legislative council separately, that bill can still become law because of legislative assembly power to override the council.
