A resolution passed under Clause (1) of Article 249 shall remain in force for such period not exceeding

  • A.Three months
  • B.Six months
  • C.Nine months
  • D.Twelve months

Answer: D

A resolution under Article 249(1), by which the Rajya Sabha declares by a two-thirds majority that Parliament should legislate on a State List subject in the national interest, remains in force for a period not exceeding one year, so (D) is correct. It may be renewed for a further year by another resolution, and the law made under it ceases to have effect six months after the resolution expires. Three, six and nine months in options (A), (B) and (C) are shorter periods that do not match the text of Article 249(2).
