Correct Answer:

Six weeks


Solution : The correct option is six weeks.

Without the consent of the State Legislature, an ordinance issued by the Governor of a state in India is valid for six weeks from the date of issuance. However, for the ordinance to continue in force after the initial term, it must be passed by the State Legislature within that time frame. If the ordinance is approved by the legislature, it becomes permanent legislation; otherwise, it lapses.
