Prorogation, Prorogue

Tamil Word - இறுதிப் படுத்துதல்

Temporary Suspension or Adjournment. Example: The legislative assembly was prorogued until the next session, delaying any further discussions on the proposed land reforms. In a legal or parliamentary context, 'prorogation' refers to the formal suspension or adjournment of a legislative body's proceedings by the head of state, without dissolving it. This action temporarily halts legislative activity until the next session. It is distinct from 'dissolution,' which terminates the current legislative body and triggers new elections.
