With reference to the state legislative assembly, which of the following actions is performed by the Presiding Officer of the House rather than the Governor?

Question

Accepted Answer

The Governor of a state is vested with the executive and legislative powers, making them an integral part of the state legislature. Consequently, the Governor has the authority to summon, prorogue, and dissolve the legislative assembly. However, the act of adjourning the day-to-day sittings of the house is the exclusive power of the Presiding Officer (Speaker or Chairman) of that house.
