2. With regards to Bills other than Money Bills
With regards to other Bills also, the Council can only delay a bill for a maximum period of 3 months. If the Council disagrees to such a Bill, it must go through a second journey from the Assembly to the Council. However, in the second journey, the Council has no power to withhold the Bill for more than a month. Thus the Legislative Council of a state is not a revising chamber like Rajya Sabha but only an advisory or dilatory chamber.
