Solution

The correct option is B the session of the House has been terminated
Prorogation is the end of a session. A prorogation puts an end to a session. The time between the Prorogation and reassembly is called Recess. Prorogation is the end of a session and not the dissolution of the house {in case of Lok Sabha, as Rajya Sabha does not dissolve}.
