Supreme Court Allows Kerala Govt To Withdraw Pleas Challenging Governor's Inaction On Bills
Last Updated: On July 26 last year, the Supreme Court agreed to consider Kerala's plea alleging the denial of assent to bills passed by the legislative assembly. The Supreme Court on Friday allowed the Kerala government to withdraw its pleas against the Governor for delaying the approval of bills passed by the state assembly. A bench of Justices PS Narasimha and AS Chandurkar issued the order after senior advocate KK Venugopal, representing the Kerala government, requested the withdrawal, noting the issue had become infructuous following a recent judgment in the Tamil Nadu Governor case. Attorney General R Venkataramani and Solicitor General Tushar Mehta opposed the withdrawal and urged the court to wait for the Supreme Court's decision on the President's reference under Article 143 of the Constitution concerning the granting of assent to bills. On April 22, the Supreme Court agreed to examine whether the recent Tamil Nadu judgment, which set timelines for granting assent to bills, covered the issues raised by the Kerala government in its pleas. The Supreme Court bench, on April 8, acting on Tamil Nadu's plea, ruled that the reservation of 10 bills for the President's consideration was illegal and erroneous in law. For the first time, the bench set a three-month deadline for the President to decide on bills reserved by the Governor. On July 26 last year, the Supreme Court agreed to consider Kerala's plea alleging the denial of assent to bills passed by the legislative assembly. The Kerala government alleged that Khan referred certain bills to President Droupadi Murmu, which were yet to be cleared. Noting the pleas, the Supreme Court issued notices to the Union Ministry of Home Affairs and the secretaries of the Kerala Governor. Kerala argued that the Governor reserved seven bills for the President's consideration, which he was required to handle himself. None of the seven bills pertained to Centre-state relations. The bills had been pending for two years, effectively subverting the state legislature's functioning, the state claimed. The state government highlighted that the bills included public interest measures that remained ineffective due to the Governor's inaction. The home ministry informed Kerala that the President had withheld assent to four of the seven bills: University Laws (Amendment) (No. 2) Bill, 2021; Kerala Co-operative Societies (Amendment) Bill, 2022; University Laws (Amendment) Bill, 2022; and University Laws (Amendment) (No. 3) Bill, 2022. The Constitution does not specify how long the President can take to grant assent to a bill passed by a state legislature and referred for presidential consideration. Article 361 states the President or Governor is not answerable to any court for their duties and actions performed in office. view comments Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

SC refuses interim relief to NEET-UG 2025 candidates hit by MP power outage, says counselling won't be stalled
New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Wednesday refused to grant any interim relief in two pleas filed by Neet-UG 2025 candidates, who suffered a power outage in exam centres in Madhya Pradesh. The candidates had petitioned the top court against a July 14 order of the Madhya Pradesh High Court refusing to order a re-test for them. A division bench comprising Justices PS Narasimha and AS Chandurkar posted the pleas for resumed hearing on Friday. The bench said it will not stay the counselling process for eligible candidates post Neet-UG results, which has been notified as noted by one of the petitioners' counsels. Justice Narasimha, speaking for the bench, clarified that individual grievances will be dealt with by the court, but the counselling process will not be stayed as it would adversely affect thousands of candidates. On June 30, a single bench of the Madhya Pradesh High Court had directed the National Testing Agency to conduct re-test of the Neet-UG 2025 for candidates affected by power outage at the centres in Indore and Ujjain, observing that the petitioners were put at a disadvantage for no fault of theirs. The single bench also observed that the counselling process will be subject to the re-test. However, last week, a division bench of the Madhya Pradesh High Court set aside the single bench decision. It took note of an expert committee report, which opined that even though there was power outage at some centres, there was sufficient natural light enabling the candidates to take the test. Aggrieved, some of the students moved the Supreme Court.
