Answer
If the Parliament does not approve it within six weeks it becomes inoperative.
Reason — An Ordinance is called a temporary law, as it ceases to operate after six weeks from the re-assembly of Parliament, unless they are approved by the Houses. It also lapses if it is replaced by an Act of Parliament.
