The correct option is D None of the above


उपरोक्त में से कोई नहीं
President does not require instructions for making an ordinance. Whereas, Governor cannot make an ordinance without the instructions from the President in three cases:
• If a bill containing the same provisions would have required the previous sanction of the President for its introduction into the state legislature.
• If he would have deemed it necessary to reserve a bill containing the same provisions for the consideration of the President.
• If an act of the state legislature containing the same provisions would have been invalid without receiving the President’s assent.
Ordinance making power is not a discretionary power, rather it is to be exercised on the aid and advice of the Council of Ministers.
