Step-by-Step Explanation of the Enactment of an Ordinary Bill:


Step A: Introduction of the Bill
An Ordinary Bill can be introduced in either House of Parliament (Lok Sabha or Rajya Sabha) by a Minister or a private member. This stage is known as the First Reading, where the title and objectives of the bill are read out.


Step B: Transmission to and consideration by the second House
After the bill is passed by the House of origin through the stages of general discussion and clause-by-clause consideration, it is transmitted to the second House for consideration.


Step C: Approval and voting by both Houses
The second House deliberates upon and passes the bill. A bill is considered passed by the Parliament only when both Houses (Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha) have agreed to it, either with or without amendments.


Step D: President's Assent
Once the bill is passed by both Houses, it is submitted to the President of India for official assent. Upon receiving the assent of the President, the bill becomes an Act.


Therefore, the correct sequential procedure is A-B-C-D.
