Headnote | Constitution of India: Art. 161 – Remission of sentence under – On the basis of policy framed by the executive – Relevant material not placed before the Governor and benefit in each of the cases was conferred by the executive itself in terms of the policy – Propriety of the remission – Held: The decisions of the Supreme Court by larger Benches show that relevant material must be placed before the Governor in order to enable him to exercise the power u/Art. 161 and failure on that count could result in quashing of the order of remission – The Constitution Bench in Maru Ram Case had observed that Government should make Rules for its own guidance in the exercise of the pardon powers – In view of the observation in Maru Ram case, the norms laid down by the policy were correct – Therefore, the matter is required to be referred to larger Bench – To determine the question whether in exercise of power conferred under Article 161, a policy can be framed, whereunder certain norms or postulates are laid down, on the satisfaction of which the benefit of remission can thereafter be granted by the Executive without placing the facts or material with respect to any of the cases before the Governor and whether such exercise can override the requirements under Section 433-A of Cr. P.C. – Sentence/ Sentencing – Remission of Sentence – Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 – s. 433-A. |

NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources.
