CJI: the court in TN was bound by the earlier decision, and discharge of functions of the governor. It is not justiciable. The most drastic concept is that assent can be challenged by any population at the stage of bill.

Discharge of governor or president function not justiciable. Judicial review can be invoked only when the bill has become a law.

We also clarify that the President is not bound to seek review when the Bill is reserved by the Governor under Article 200. If in extraneous consideration, the President wants to seek, it can.

However, the consequent question that arises is what redressal lies when the Governor does not assent- while merits of action can't be looked into by the Court, unaction prolonged, undefinite, without reason will invite limited judicial scrutiny!
