The Government Bill Means A Bill Introduced By A :

A: Member of the Treasury bench in the Lok Sabha
B: Member of Parliament who is not a Minister
C: Minister in the Lok Sabha
D: Minister in any House of Parliament

The answer is: D

Explanation

In India, a Government Bill refers to a bill that is introduced by a Minister in either House of Parliament. Therefore, option D is correct.

Ministers are members of the government and are responsible for proposing and implementing laws and policies. A Government Bill is a legislative proposal introduced by a Minister on behalf of the government in either the Lok Sabha or the Rajya Sabha. These bills reflect the policy and legislative agenda of the government.

On the other hand, bills introduced by Members of Parliament who are not Ministers are known as Private Member Bills. These bills are introduced by individual MPs who are not part of the government and reflect their own views and proposals. However, the chances of a Private Member Bill being passed into law are generally low.
