Answer: C
The keyed answer is (C), six months. A proclamation of President's rule under Article 356 must be approved by both Houses within two months, and once approved it continues for six months, after which it needs fresh approval; the total period was limited to one year, or three years in the case of the 44th Amendment's conditions. The question asks for the period of validity on an approval, and the key reads it as six months. One month in option (A) and three months in option (B) are shorter than the period given, and one year in option (D) is the total limit that can be reached by renewal and not the period of validity of a single approval.
