A CASE COMMENT ON STATE OF TAMIL NADU V. GOVERNOR OF TAMIL NADU (2025)
Abstract
State of Tamil Nadu v. Governor of Tamil Nadu (2025) is a landmark judgment that directly confronts the misuse of gubernatorial assent powers and re-centres democratic accountability in India's federal structure. The Supreme Court not only clarified the meaning of Article 200 but also crafted structural remedies to prevent an unelected Governor from paralysing an elected legislature through delay and strategic inaction. This case comment aims to understand and analyse the rationale behind the given judgment.
