  • Discussion took place about 1981 AMU Amendment Act

    CJI: Parliament's cause is eternal, indivisible and indestructive and I cannot hear that the govt of India say that the amendment which is made I don't stand by

    CJI: You have an option to change the amendment.

    SG: I am not arguing a matter of A v B, I am before the a 7 judge constitution bench answering constitutional questions that is no.1; the amendment in question was then challenged in the HC and there is a judgement declaring that it is unconstitutional for A, b, c, d grounds; as a law officer it is my entitlement and right to say that this view appears to be correct.

    CJI: the the law officer will be telling us that I don't abide by what the parliament has done, you have to stand by what the parliament has done. Parliament is undoubtedly supreme in its law making functions, it can always amend a statute
