"For a bill to become a law it must be passed by both houses in precisely the same words and figures. The second house frequentl

y amends and then returns the bill to the house of origin. In the case of significant bills, with substantial differences, the shortcut of a conference committee likely will be taken almost immediately. A conference committee is composed of 3 members from the Senate and 3 members from the House of Representatives. As a separate committee, they vote separately, not only on the final product but on any subsidiary questions put to a vote. This suggests a give-and-take process because if a majority of the conferees from either house refuses to budge, the conference would be stalemated and the bill could fail. However, this rarely happens." According to the passage, what is the purpose of using a "conference committee" in the legislative process? A) Conference committees permit the governor to exercise control over the legislative branch. B) Conference committees are only utilized in extreme situations like war or natural disasters. C) Conference committees are necessary to reconcile differences between the House and Senate regarding bills. D) Conference committees are always the last resort that the House and Senate use to come to a consensus regarding a bill.

The first organised militant movements were in Bengal, but they later took root in the newly formed Indian National Congress with prominent moderate leaders seeking only their basic right to appear for Indian Civil Service (British India) examinations, as well as more rights, economic in nature, for the people of the soil. The early part of the 20th century saw a more radical approach towards political self-rule proposed by leaders such as the Lal, Bal, Pal and Aurobindo Ghosh, V. O. Chidambaram Pillai. The last stages of the self-rule struggle from the 1920s onwards saw Congress adopt Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi's policy of nonviolence and civil disobedience, and several other campaigns. Nationalists like Subhash Chandra Bose, Bhagat Singh, Bagha Jatin preached armed revolution to achieve self-rule. Poets and writers such as Subramania Bharati, Rabindranath Tagore, Muhammad Iqbal, Josh Malihabadi, Mohammad Ali Jouhar, Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay and Kazi Nazrul Islamused literature, poetry and speech as a tool for political awareness. Feminists such as Sarojini Naidu and Begum Rokeya promoted the emancipation of Indian women and their participation in national politics. B. R. Ambedkarchampioned the cause of the disadvantaged sections of Indian society within the larger self-rule movement. The period of the Second World War saw the peak of the campaigns by the Quit India Movement led by Congress, and the Indian National Army movement led by Subhas Chandra Bose.
