In a recent hearing, the Supreme Court of India deliberated on potential constitutional implications amidst a petition regarding the recent unrest in West Bengal following protests against the Waqf Amendment Act. Justice Gavai’s bench took note of concerns raised about the court possibly exceeding its constitutional mandate by delving into matters falling under the purview of the legislature and executive. Advocate Vishnu Shankar Jain urged the Court to issue directives to the Central government under Article 355 of the Constitution, recommending the imposition of President’s Rule in the state in light of the ongoing turmoil. The petition underscores the delicate balance of powers among the branches of government and the judiciary’s role in upholding constitutional principles while addressing issues of public interest. The Supreme Court’s handling of this case will be closely watched as it navigates the intersection of legal interpretation, political ramifications, and public order concerns. The outcome of this petition could have far-reaching implications for the governance and rule of law in India, particularly in the context of state-federal relations and the protection of fundamental rights. Stay tuned for further developments as the Court continues to deliberate on this significant matter.
