Shubhankar Dam

India has a parliamentary system. Yet the presidenthas authority to occasionally enact legislation (orordinances) without involving parliament. This book isa study of ordinances at the national level in Indiacentered around three themes. Firstly, how an artifactof British constitutional history, over time, became partof India's legislative system. Secondly, how, when, andwhy presidents resorted to ordinances in post-independent India. Thirdly, it analyzes a range ofordinance-related questions, including some that areyet to be judicially adjudicated. In the process, itexplains why much of the Indian Supreme Court'sanalyses are mistaken, and what should take its place.The book explains why the fate of parliamentaryreforms may be tied to the reform of this provision forordinances. Standing at the intersection ofconstitutional law and political science, PresidentialLegislation in India offers a new frame through whichto understand executive's legislative powers both inparliamentary and presidential systems.
