A Correct answer
Explanation

Article 85(1) mandates that the President shall summon Parliament at least once every six months. This ensures regular legislative sessions and prevents indefinite gaps. The six-month period is the maximum permissible gap between sessions, not the duration of a session. This provision prevents the executive from avoiding legislative scrutiny.
