Ex-Law Minister Comments On President Questioning SC's Ruling On State Bills: 'Not Good For Country'
On President Droupadi Murmu questioning Supreme Court's deadline ruling in State bills, Former Law Minister Ashwani Kumar said, "This is a very important constitutional and political development. The reference the President has made to the Supreme Court touches upon a very fundamental question about India's democracy, namely, the boundaries of power between the judiciary and the executive. There has been serious discussion in the country after the SC delivered its judgement on the question. There are two views on the matter - The President of India has done well in making the reference. A constitutional bench of the Supreme Court will hopefully return the advisory opinion, and according to that advisory opinion, things will become clear. I think there has to be a way out of what is appearing to be a conflict between the judiciary and the executive, which is not good for the country."
