• B. 3 months
• C. 6 months
• D. 10 months

Answer 1

Answer:

C. 6 months

• The time gap between two sessions of the Parliament in India should not exceed six months.

• This is mandated by Article 85 of the Indian Constitution, which states that the President shall summon each House of Parliament to meet at such time and place as he thinks fit, but six months shall not intervene between its last sitting in one session and the date appointed for its first sitting in the next session. This effectively means that Parliament must meet at least twice a year.
