  • Budget Speech
    1 Hon’ble Speaker Sir, With your permission, I present the budget of the State for the year 2020-21 to the House. This is a diamond jubilee year of our glorious State of Maharashtra that has come into existence after the sacrifice of 106 martyrs. We are going to celebrate it with pride. After the assembly elections of 2019, Maha Vikas Aghadi has formed the Government in the State. In view of the trust shown by the voters and public interest, Shiv Sena, Nationalist Congress Party, Indian National Congress and other coalition parties have come together. I thank leaders of all these parties and you for giving me an opportunity to present the first budget of this coalition government. It is a coincidence that today this government has completed 100 days. Hon. Speaker Sir, you are aware that the present period is very complicated and challenging from economic point of view. The country is facing serious consequences due to economic slow down. The indicators at the national level appears to be falling in terms of gross national income, production growth, employment generation, growth rate of the economy. The impact of slow down at the country level is also felt at the state level. 2. While preparing the budget, an approach has been kept that the Agricultural and Industrial sector should grow in all parts of the state, especially all sections of the society should be developed, thereby student get quality education, 2 employment to the youth and quality health care to the general public. 3. During the financial year 2019-20 the nominal GDP of India is expected to be Rs.

  • 'New Outsider' Revive Nativist Politics in Mumbai?
    Will the ‘new outsider’ revive nativist politics in Mumbai? The formation of Maha Vikas Aghadi by the Shiv Sena, NCP, and the Congress has put both the MNS and the BJP in Maharashtra in a crisis Sumeet Mhaskar 16 February, 2020 MNS chief Raj Thackeray is doing all he can to get back into the political landscape of Maharashtra after the formation of the Maha Vikas Aghadi. File photo: PTI Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS)’s decision to shed their pretensions of inclusive politics and explicitly embrace Hindutva ideology is yet another desperate attempt to revive their presence in Maharashtra’s political landscape. After the north-Indian and Gujarati ‘outsiders,’ MNS has decided to focus on Bangladeshi and Pakistani Muslim outsiders for injecting life into their otherwise fragile political existence. More importantly, MNS president Raj Thackeray extended his support to the CAA. Previously too, Raj Thackeray had argued in favour of deporting Bangladeshi and Pakistani immigrants. However, about two months ago he had opposed the introduction of CAA and NRC. Raj Thackeray argued in December that Amit Shah has introduced CAA- NRC to divert people’s attention from the economic slowdown. He further stated that our systems had failed to cater to the needs of our own people, and therefore there was no need to bring in more people and give them citizenship – irrespective of their religious affiliation. However, the formation of Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) by the Shiv Sena, NCP, and the Congress has put both the MNS and the BJP in the state in crisis. Since Bal Thackeray’s death in 2012, the Shiv Sena has been reduced to a helpless younger brother by the BJP.

    REPORTABLE IN THE SUPREME COURT OF INDIA CIVIL ORIGINAL JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) NO. 1393 OF 2019 SHIV SENA AND ORS. ¼PETITIONERS VERSUS UNION OF INDIA AND ORS. ¼RESPONDENTS ORDER 1. There is no gainsaying that the boundaries between the jurisdiction of Courts and Parliamentary independence have been contested for a long time.1 However, there is a need and requirement for recognizing institutional comity and separation of powers so as to tailor judicial interference in the democratic processes only as a last resort. This case pertains to one such situation, wherein this Court is called upon to adjudicate and maintain democratic values and facilitate the fostering of the citizens' right of good governance. 2. Before we pass any orders, we need to make a brief reference to the factual aspects giving rise to the petition herein. It was well known that there existed a pre-poll alliance between the 1 Erskine May, Parliamentary Practice, 25th edition, 321 (2019). 1 Bharatiya Janata Party [for short `BJP'] and the Shiv Sena, who contested the Fourteenth Maharashtra Legislative Assembly elections jointly. On 24.10.2019, the results for the aforesaid elections were declared and no single party had the requisite majority in the House. On 09.11.2019, the Governor called upon the BJP to indicate its willingness to form the Government, being the single largest party with 105 seats. However, the BJP declined to form the Government on 10.11.2019, as the alliance with the Shiv Sena allegedly broke down. 3. Subsequently, the Governor invited the Shiv Sena to form the Government.

  • Floor Test: a Check on Discretionary Power of Governors
    FLOOR TEST: A CHECK ON DISCRETIONARY POWER OF GOVERNORS Aayush Akar Intern ProBono India 2nd Year, B.A.LLB, National Law University Odisha, Cuttack November 28, 2019 1 Floor Test: A Check on Discretionary Power of Governors Because of its strongly imbibed "Unity in Diversity" culture, the Indian constitutional system is unique. India is a "Union of States" outlined for political and cultural unity, the elimination of divisive forces, and the effective administration of the huge country. The Indian Constitution offers an excellent framework for a smooth relationship between the Union and the States, on one side, and the intergovernmental States, on the other.1 The legislative powers are distributed between the Centre and States keeping in mind the objectives of the Indian Union. Under Articles 245 and 246, the Union is given powers to make laws on matters of nature which are important for the unity and integrity of the nation listed in List I of the Seventh Schedule. According to those provisions the States are granted the power to make laws appropriate for the effective governance of the States in respect of the questions mentioned in List II of said Schedule. The Union and the States are authorized to legislate in the matters listed in List III, the Concurrent List, in order to ensure coordination and cooperation. The demarcation of power between the State and the Centre is the upshot of the detailed discussion in the Constituent Assembly.2 There is a circumstance in which the Union can interfere in the dominion of the State i.e. under Article 356, Union can take over the jurisdiction of the State when there is a failure of the constitutional machinery of the State.
