This hearing is expected to clarify the extent of these powers, including whether the court can set a time limit for the President or Governors to decide on bills.

The President's referral comes just a month after the Supreme Court's verdict in the Tamil Nadu Government vs. Governor case, where the court noted that the Governor had not acted in good faith when reserving bills for the President. The questions raised by the President in her reference seek definitive answers on the authority of the President and Governors concerning the approval and passage of bills. The outcome of today's hearing is highly anticipated to provide much-needed clarity on this constitutional matter.
