A joint sitting of both Houses of the Indian Parliament is chaired by the Speaker of the Lok Sabha, who acts as the ex-officio Chairman of the joint sitting. If there is a disagreement between the Lok Sabha (House of the People) and the Rajya Sabha (Council of States) regarding a particular bill, the President of India can convene a joint sitting to break the deadlock.
