The Sarkaria Commission
examined the scope of the discretion of the
Governor in relation to assent to the Bills under
Article 200 of the Constitution. It viewed that
Article 200 does not provide discretion to the
Governor either expressly or by implication. The
commission observed that, the scope of
Governor's discretion is very limited as is
obvious by the fact that the Governor cannot
withhold assent to a reconsidered Bill.
