Correct Answer:

Six Months


Solution : The correct answer is six months .

According to Article 164 (4), a minister who is not a member of the state legislature for six consecutive months shall cease to be a minister at the end of that stretch. An individual not a member of the state legislature may be appointed as Chief Minister for six months. If they are not elected to the state legislature during that period, they lose their position as Chief Minister.
