What could be the maximum time limit of the ‘Zero Hour’?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → 1 hour
The Zero Hour is the time just after the Question Hour in Parliament when members raise urgent matters without the usual advance notice. It is an Indian practice, not mentioned in the rules of procedure. It begins at 12 noon and can last at most till 1 p.m., when the House breaks for lunch or takes up its listed business, so its maximum time limit is one hour.
