Explanation

The Prevention of Terrorism Act (POTA) 2002 was indeed passed by a joint session of Parliament as it was a money bill affecting the federal structure and requiring special majority under Article 108. The joint sitting was held in 2002 to pass this controversial legislation. Neither the Dowry Prohibition Act nor Banking Service Commission Act required a joint session - they were passed through ordinary legislative process. The question specifically tests knowledge of POTA's unique parliamentary passage.
