The President can exercise 'Pocket Veto' by simply ______ a bill without taking any action, as there is no time limit for giving assent.
- returning
- approving
- withholding
- amending
Answer: withholding
Article 111: President has three veto types: (a) Absolute veto - withholding assent, (b) Suspensive veto - returning bill (except Money Bills), (c) Pocket veto - taking no action indefinitely. Pocket veto was used in 1986 for Indian Post Office (Amendment) Bill. This passive power checks hasty legislation.
