👉Detailed #Thread on how Rajasthan governor's latest rejection letter to Gehlot is a pre-cursor to another legal battle (likely in Supreme Court)

👉Guv has invoked some following legalities

👉'Article 14- Give equal opportunity to all. 21 day notice does that'

1/4

👉'In Nabam Rebia case, SC said Governor's area of discretion is LIMITED in which his action must be dictated by reason, actuated by good faith & tempered by caution'

👉Guv says that's exactly what he has done. Reason- corona, good faith & caution- safety of 200 & 1000 officials

👉Rajasthan governor says, 'MLAs are in ENCLOSURE in various resorts in & OUTSIDE the state'

👉'Hence, it is my constitutional duty to ensure their FREE WILL & FREE MOVEMENT before calling a session in a special (corona) situation'

👉'Rules say 21 notice is a convention'

3/4

👉'If that convention is not being followed, then Gehlot HAS TO CITE A REASON'

👉'Rejected proposal as instead of giving a reason, govt just reminded me that I am binding to listen to it'

👉Guv's proposal- Want a session? Give 21 day notice. Want it earlier? Give a reason
