Exercise of executive authority by Judiciary, Legislature against democracy: Dhankhar

New Delhi: Vice-President Jagdeep Dhankhar on Sunday said that the exercise of executive authority by either the judiciary or the legislature was not in consonance with democracy and constitutional prescriptions.

“This is an established position as the Executive for governance is alone accountable to the Legislature and answerable to courts by way of judicial review,” Dhankhar said here at a ceremony to felicitate veteran Congress leader and former Jammu and Kashmir governor Dr Karan Singh on completion of his 75 years in public Life at India International Centre (IIC) in Delhi on Sunday.

He also appealed to the intelligentsia and academia to catalyse national discourse to ensure deference to constitutional essence by the three wings –the Executive, the Judiciary and the Legislature.

“Dr (Karan) Singh has over seven decades witnessed the rise of the nation, and contributed to it in myriad ways. The nation presently is in unprecedented economic upsurge and on an incremental developmental trajectory, well set to be a developed nation @2047, if not earlier,” he pointed out.

Flagging concerns around “anti-national narratives”

“Convergence of forces within and outside inimical to Bharat is a matter of deep concern and alarming. So also anti national narratives,” Dhankhar added, and underlined the need for concerted endeavours to influence national mood so as to neutralise these pernicious forces.

“Executive governance by the judiciary is jurisprudentially and jurisdictionally beyond constitutional sanctification. However, this aspect is engaging active attention of the people indicating in their perception umpteen such instances. This significant aspect calls for deep reflection at your level (Dr Karan Singh), and few like you, the intelligentsia and the academia,” the Vice President said.

Dhankhar continued: “This influencing category, the most potent weapon of democracy to inspire and motivate people needs to act as a beacon for catalysing healthy enlightening national discourse to ensure deference to constitutional essence. This would wholesomely contribute to the blossoming of democracy and nurturing constitutional spirit and essence.”
