Solution

The correct option is A 4 months
An ordinary or non-money bill can be introduced in either House of the State Legislature. It should be passed by both the Houses to become a law. If the bill is moved and passed in the Legislative Assembly in the first instance, it goes to the Legislative Council. The Legislative Council can hold the bill for a maximum period of 4 months.
