Q. Article 163 and Article 200, which were seen in the news, is associated with which Constitutional position?
Answer: Governor
Notes: Article 163 of the Constitution addresses the general powers of the Governor, whereas Article 200 specifically focuses on the grant of assent to Bills. The recent decision by Tamil Nadu’s Governor, R N Ravi, to withhold assent to 10 pending Bills has sparked new legal inquiries into the extent of the Governor’s powers. At least four states governed by the opposition, including Tamil Nadu, approached the Supreme Court, seeking its involvement in clarifying the parameters of the Governor’s authority in the legislative process.
