Section 39:
Bills reserved for consideration.
When a Bill is reserved by Lieutenant Governor for the
consideration of the President, the President shall declare either that he assents to the Bill or that he
withholds assent therefrom:
Provided that where the Bill is not a Money Bill, the President may direct the Lieutenant Governor
to return the Bill to the Legislative Assembly together with such a message as is mentioned in the first
proviso to section 38 and, when a Bill is so returned, the Assembly shall reconsider it accordingly
within a period of six months from the date of receipt of such message and, if it is again passed by the
Assembly with or without amendment, it shall be presented again to the President for his
consideration.
