A legislative assembly is a group of elected representatives responsible for making laws and decisions for a specific region, such as a state or province. Members of the assembly debate proposed laws, known as bills, and vote on whether to approve or reject them. This process helps ensure that the views and needs of the public are considered in governance. Legislative assemblies can vary in structure and function depending on the country or region. For example, in Canada, each province has its own legislative assembly, while in India, the national parliament consists of two houses, including the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha.
