Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
The Lok Sabha has some special powers that make it a more powerful house than Rajya Sabha. For example, the Lok Sabha can dissolve the government even before its expiry by moving the no-confidence motion. But this power is not given to Rajya Sabha. Also, the Council of ministers is only responsible to the Lok Sabha and not the Rajya Sabha. The Rajya Sabha cannot amend or reject a money bill given to it for discussion by the Lok Sabha. The Lok Sabha has the exclusive right to make, pass and amend a money bill. Though any law must be given in both houses of the parliament, if there is a difference between the opinions of Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha, then the final decision is taken according to the opinions and statements of Lok Sabha. Hence the correct information would be Rajya Sabha is not more powerful than the Lok Sabha.
