Sessions Of State Legislature

**Statement 1 is correct:** Article 176(1) of the Indian Constitution mandates that the Governor shall address both Houses of the State Legislature at the commencement of the first session after each general election to the State Assembly and at the commencement of the first session of each year. The Governor's address outlines the government’s policies, legislative agenda, and key priorities. This address is similar to the President’s address to Parliament under Article 87. **Statement 2 is correct:** When there is no rule on a particular subject in the State Legislature, under a convention since colonial times, state legislatures follow the rules of the Lok Sabha.
