Government rules made easy. Just ask.

SHORT ANSWER: Article 174 of the Indian Constitution allows the Governor to summon and prorogue the state legislature, balancing discretion with accountability. DETAILS: - The Governor can summon the legislature at any time but must act on the advice of the Council of Ministers. - This ensures that while the Governor has discretion, it is exercised in accordance with the democratic principles of the elected government. PUNISHMENT / IMPLICATIONS (if applicable): - No specific punishment; however, failure to summon the legislature can lead to constitutional challenges. SOURCE: - Constitution of India, Article 174
