Explain the following terms : Quorum and Zero Hour
Answers
Answer:
The quorum means the minimum number of members required to be present in order to enable the House to transact its business. The quorum of the Lok Sabha and The Rajya Sabha is one-tenth of the total membership of each house. This means that the House cannot conduct its proceedings and pass bills and resolutions without the presence of atleast one-tenth of its total membership. The speaker may adjourn the House or suspend the meeting until there is a requisite quorum.
The Zero Hour refers to the period which begins at 12 o'clock soon after the question hour and continues till the lunch break which begins at 1 o'clock. During the zero hour members raise all types of questions, without any permission or prior notice. The presiding officer controls the house, when faced with heated discussions, charges and countercharges and constant interruptions by the members.
