Solution
The correct option is C Six months If a person who is not the member of parliament is appointed as a minister he has to get elected to the either house of parliament within six month. After six month he cease to be a minister. In other words, a non-member may be appointed as a minister, but he/she will have to get elected to either house within six months.
