{'ordinance': [3, 0, 0, 0], 'weeks': [3, 0, 0, 0], 'assembly': [4, 0, 1, 3], 'governor': [5, 1, 0, 6]}
The correct answer is option 4: 6 weeks. An ordinance issued by the Governor is a temporary law that can be issued when the legislative assembly is not in session. However, for the ordinance to become a permanent law, it needs to be approved by the assembly. The Constitution of India states that an ordinance must be passed by the assembly within six weeks from the beginning of its next session. If the assembly fails to do so, the ordinance ceases to be in effect. This provision is in place to ensure that the Governor`s power to issue ordinances is not misused and that the assembly has the final say in making laws.
