What is Applying Guillotine in Lok Saha?
Guillotine in literary meaning is a machine that was invented during the French Revolution to execute people by beheading them. Also, a machine for cutting papers is called a guillotine.
However, in parliamentary terms, guillotine refers to a procedure ordered by the Speaker of Lok Sabha to pass a bill without discussion. Bills that are considered necessary for implementation but could be delayed due to fierce opposition logjam are passed through this route.
After the presentation of the Budget in Lok Sabha, Parliament goes for a three-week recess. During this period the House Standing Committees review and prepare reports on the demand for grants from various ministries.
The Business Advisory Committee (BAC) fixes a schedule for the debate on the demands for grants and budgetary proposals of key ministries such as Home, Defence, External Affairs and Agriculture are taken up for discussion. After these discussions, all outstanding demands are passed. However, whenever there is a logjam in the lower house of the Parliament, the Speaker applies guillotine to pass the Union Budget.
