  • D.Article 115

Answer: B

Article 123 of the Constitution gives the President the power to promulgate ordinances when Parliament is not in session, that is, in recess, if the President is satisfied that circumstances require immediate action. An ordinance has the same force as an Act and must be laid before Parliament, ceasing six weeks after it reassembles. Article 120 deals with the language to be used in Parliament, Article 118 with its rules of procedure and Article 115 with supplementary grants. The answer is Article 123, option (B).
