MEMORIAL FOR RESPONDENT


VIII.WRITTEN PLEADING
1. Whether the petition is maintainable?
It is humbly submitted that since, there has been no fundamental rights of any group of
individuals or citizens is been violated, the amendment done here is rational and in good
concern and thus, the Public Interest Litigation filed in the supreme court is not maintainable
under Article 32.
DEFENDANT ADVANCE ARGUMENTS
The Counsel for the respondent humbly submits that the PIL filed by the Petitioner is
not maintainable as the Petitioner haven’t impugned by any Fundamental rights and there
was not any violation made to an individual.
(1.1) EXCLUTION IN THE PUBLIC INTEREST:
It is humbly submitted in the hon’ble court of sindia that the observance of the
principle of natural justice may be excluded in case such observance would cause injury
to the public interest and liberty of the people of the region.
In Union of India v. Tulsi ram patel, the supreme court has made it clear that the rule of
natural justice can be avoided if its observance will paralyze the administrative process.
The cases of Public Interest includes the defence of the country and maintenance of state
secret thus the rule of natural justice may be excluded or may be avoided in the interest
of the state secret. And there has also been the another case which in Satyavir Singh v.
Union of India, the Supreme court has expressed the view that natural justice must not be
allowed to run wild. The court can determines whether the exclusion is Public Interest or
Not.
If the right of people is not prejudicially affected, the application of rules of natural
justice is not affected and the PIL can be excluded on this ground the counsel submit that
there has been no violation of Article 14,19 and 21, as the special provisions for Sarv and
Paharia is a temporary article. And here there is no other state in Sindia have this special
powers, which is also against the equality of a country, and therefore Article 370 and
35A is unconstitutional.
(1.2) THE AMENDMENT IS FOR THE PUBLIC INTEREST AT LARGE:
The counsel submits that the Act was for the larger public interest. Both the state as
well as the national interest. Here the people of Paharian region and Sarv has
discriminated from other sindian nationality right. And there is an larger view of
exploitation in the region, not any central power intervene in the region. The importance
of proper security to that region cannot be given. Statement prevents people from

MEMORIAL FOR RESPONDENT


fulfilling their potential and may have a severe knock on effect for social cohesion and
stability, it may even lead to communal tension and displacement.
And here in this case, there is no fundamental rights violated, the state is in
emergency and there has been a large terrorist attack in the seema city. So, the president
made a proper legislation to solve this issue. The unrest in the place is just for a period of
short time and if we overcome this period, the larger position would be achieved.
And government has taken proper measures to calm the situation of the country. The
fundamental rights of the people cannot be invoked as there is emergency in the place. And
therefore it is pointed out that interference by the courts through the PIL in the sphere of
executive and legislature is not justified as it is likely to the cause conflict between the three
organs of the government. From the facts to the case, The government has not done any
violation of the right to the people. It is just an provision for increasing the national security
of the country. The bill is constitutionally valid.

In the light of all the submissions, the act does not attack any fundamental provisions
of the country. Instead, It strengthens the country’s security stance.

2. Whether the presidential order is valid?
It is humbly submitted before the hon’ble court of Sindia, that the presidential order is
valid and there has been no gross violation of any principle and article of the Sindian
constitution. And other arguments are explained in the argument advanced.
Arguments advanced.
It is humbly submitted before the hon’ble court that the order of the president is valid
and which has been explained under the following provision.
(2.1) THINGS IN THE INSTRUMENT OF ACCESSION:
From the facts of the case, where during the period of independence, the government
of Sindia annexed Sarv and Paharia. On 26th October 1947. And in the mother law of the
country is considered, special provision in Sarv and Paharia is mentioned in Article 370 and
35A of the constitution of Sindia, which isdrafted in constitution. Which is temporary and
special provision. From this, It is very clear that it is a temporary provision, which can be
abrogated at any time.
(2.2) FOR NATIOONAL SECURITY:
The counsel submits that In 2018, December there was a severe terrorist attack
occurred in Seema city killing almost 100 soldiers of Sindia. Where in the region of sarv
and Paharia as the Sindian government could not provide proper military aidence. After the
period of election, there were serious of unrest in the part of Sarv and Paharia. So, to ensure
the national peace of the country the president using his power passed a law. An ordinance
passes under Article 123 sindian constitution has specifically explained about the president
power in the Article 121 and 123 of the Sindian Constitution. In the case T. Venkata reddy
v. state of A.P where the president can make laws for the welfare of the state. Then there
can be no question arise by the government. As there was no state legislature present in this
case, president made a bill and passed it to both the houses of the parliament. And form the
house, it come from two majority and the reorganization bill was passed.

In the light of all the submissions made the presidential order made by the president
of the country is valid, as it is for interest of the nation. No legal means has been violated.

3. Whether the act is ultra vires of the constitution of Sindia?
It is humbly submitted before the hon’ble of sindia that the act regarding the
reorganization bill is not ultra- virus of the constitution of sindia as in the very first
preamble of the constitution, explains the equality, secular Democratic principle is
ensured.
ARGUMENT ADVANCED:
It is humbly submitted before the hon’ble court of sindia that the act was not ultra
vires of the constitution of sindia. And it is intra virus to the constitution2. President has
the power to legislate the laws under the article 357 of the constitution of sindia. And
through Article 356 of the constitution of sindia says that the president, on receipt of a
report from the governor of a state, or otherwise is satisfied that a situation has arises in
which the government of the state cannot be carried on in accordance with the provision
of the constitution by means of Proclamations. In S.R. Bommai v. Union of India that
the assemblies were dissolved and the president rule was in force, and there were
guidelines made for imposing president’s rule. And in Rameshwar Prasad v. Union of
India that the president’s rule was imposed in the state of Bihar as there were no party
had the required majority. And even in the case, It has been explained that the both the
parties has no majority to rule, so president rule into the force, and through the means of
bill it has been passed to the both the house of parliament and which has been passed
with the majority of 67% and 84% of the parliament, And then the president signed it.
There has no ultra virus has made in the act, it is all come under the intro virus of the
act of the parliament. And even in the Article 370 (3) there has a clause to alagate the
Article 370 of the constitution. During the period of instrument, It has been explained as
a temporary clause Article, So from the conventions made by the counsel it is clear that
the act is intra virus of the constitution.

In the light of all the submissions made, the act does not have ultra virus to the
constitution of sindia. Where it is all through the means of the constitution of Sindia, The
amendment has enforced.
