Njengoba iPhalamende lidlala indima enkulu emidelweni yanamuhla, amazwe amakhulu ahlukanisa iqhaza iqhaza namandla ePhalamende ezingxenyeni ezimbili. Babizwa ngokuthi amakamelo noma izindlu. Indlu eyodwa ivame ukuqokwa ngqo ngabantu futhi isebenzise amandla angempela egameni labantu. Indlu yesibili ivame ukuqokwa ngokungaqondile futhi yenza eminye imisebenzi ekhethekile. Umsebenzi ovame kakhulu wendlu yesibili ukunakekela izintshisekelo zezifundazwe ezahlukahlukene, izifunda noma amayunithi wobumbano.
Ezweni lethu, iPhalamende liqukethe izindlu ezimbili. Lezi zindlu ezimbili zaziwa ngokuthi uMkhandlu Wezifundazwe (uRajya Sabha) nendlu yabantu (lok sabha). UMongameli waseNdiya uyingxenye yePhalamende, yize engeyona ilungu lendlu. Kungakho yonke imithetho eyenziwe ezindlini iqala ukusebenza kuphela ngemuva kokuthola injongo kaMongameli.
Ufunde ngePhalamende laseNdiya ezifundweni zangaphambilini. Kusukela eSahlukweni 3 Uyakwazi ukuthi kwenzeka kanjani. Masikhumbule umehluko omkhulu phakathi kokuqanjwa kwalezi zindlu ezimbili zePhalamende. Phendula okulandelayo kweLok Sabha kanye neRajya Sabha:
• Yiliphi inani eliphelele lamalungu e-P?
• Ngubani okhetha amalungu? …
• Buyini ubude begama (eminyakeni)? …
• Ngabe indlu ingachithwa noma ingapheli?
Yiziphi kulezi zindlu ezimbili ezinamandla amakhulu? Kungabonakala ukuthi i-rajya sabha inamandla amakhulu, ngoba kwesinye isikhathi ibizwa ngokuthi ‘igumbi eliphezulu’ kanye ne-lok sabha ‘chamber ephansi’. Kepha lokhu akusho ukuthi uRajya Sabha unamandla kakhulu kunoLok Sabha. Lesi yisitayela esidala sokukhuluma hhayi ulimi olusetshenziswe kuMthethosisekelo wethu.
UMthethosisekelo wethu unikeza uRajya Sabha amandla akhethekile phezu kwezifundazwe. Kepha ezintweni eziningi, uLok Sabha usebenzisa amandla amakhulu. Ake sibheke ukuthi:
1 Noma yimuphi umthetho ojwayelekile udinga ukudluliswa yizindlu zombili. Kepha uma kunomehluko phakathi kwezindlu ezimbili, isinqumo sokugcina sithathwa esimweni esihlangene lapho amalungu ezindlu ahlala khona ndawonye. Ngenxa yenani elikhulu lamalungu, umbono weLok Sabha kungenzeka anqobe emhlanganweni onjalo.
2 ULok Sabha usebenzisa amandla amaningi ezindabeni zemali. Lapho uLok Sabhathula isabelomali sikahulumeni noma omunye umthetho ohlobene nemali, uRajya Sabha akakwazi ukukwenqaba. I-Rajya Sabha ingayibambezele kuphela ngezinsuku eziyi-14 noma iphakamise izinguquko kuyo. ILok Sabha kungenzeka noma ingemukeli lezi zinguquko.
Okubaluleke kakhulu, uLok Sabha ulawula uMkhandlu Wezikhonzi. Umuntu kuphela othokozela ukusekelwa kweningi lamalungu eLok Sabha amiswa nguNdunankulu. Uma iningi lamalungu eLok Sabha lithi abunakho ukuzethemba ‘eMkhandlwini WeziNgqongqoshe, bonke abenzi basolwa kubandakanya uNdunankulu, kufanele bayeke. URajya Sabha akanawo amandla.
