Zero Hour is an informal procedure in the Indian Parliament where Members of Parliament can raise issues of urgent public importance immediately after the Question Hour. It is not explicitly mentioned in the Rules of Procedure but has become a significant part of the parliamentary process.

Zero Hour allows MPs to raise matters without prior notice.

Question Hour is the first hour of a parliamentary sitting where MPs ask questions and ministers answer them. There is no specific ‘Notice period’, ‘Cooling-off period’, or ‘Stipulated interval’ generally referred to in this context, although procedures involve notice periods for raising certain matters.
