Report No. 46
The Constitution (Twenty-Fifth Amendment) Bill, 1971.
1. Introductory.-
The Constitution (Twenty-Fifth Amendment) Bill, which has been introduced in the Lok Sabha on the 28th July, 1971, has not been formally referred to us by the Ministry of Law and Justice for our opinion or report; but the Bill, and more particularly clause 3 of it, falls directly within the purview of the wider terms of reference-clauses (viii) and (ix)-under which the present Commission has been constituted; and so we think it right suo motu to make a report indicating our opinion on the merits of the Bill.
