Long Types Questions & Answers

Q.6.Why is it necessary for a country to have a cl ear demarcation of the powers and responsibilities in the Constitution? What would happen in the absence of such a demarcation?

Ans : One of the most essential elements of country is to have a clear demarcation of power and responsibilities in the Constitution. The there organs of government-Legislature, Executive and Judiciary perform three essential fiction of rulemaking, rule application and rule adjudication these three functions are interrelated and interdependent, but it is essential that these three should be performed by three different organs, neither by two nor by one organ or institution.

The power of each organ of the. Government should be demarcated from the other if the liberty of the people is to saved from the authority of the state which is exercised by its government. 

The three organs of the government must be separate and independent from one another because any combination of these three into a single or two hands is bound to be always very harmful and dangerous for individual liberty.Decentralisation, division of powers, specialisation and separation of power are essential instrument for the health of the government and the people alike government can work systematically and efficiently only when each of its organs exercises it’s own power unhindered by the other two organs. The clear demarcation of powers and responsibilities in the Constitution keeping the government restrains and limited as well as for protecting the liberty of the people, the functions of government should be differentiated and performed by three separate organs with each working in its own sphere of action without encroachment upon others. 

It is also mentioned that to ensure the monopoly of any one organs there is a provision like in Indian constitute the principle of check and balance is applied to secure the fundamental rights to its citizen. For example is Indian democracy. the bills passed by the Parliament becomes acts only when these get. Presidential signature, the president has the power to make the appointment of the judges, the judiciary has the power to declare any law unconstitutional it is not suit with the provision of the Constitution through the judicial review power.

In there is not clear demarcation of powers and responsibilities the administration of a country face many problem.For instance, organ or body the liberty of the people gets jeopardised because it leads to a tyrannical exercise of these two powers . On the other hand judicial and legislative powers are united in the same organ, the interpretation of laws becomes meaningless because then the law- maker also acts as law interpreter and it never likes or wishes to accept the errors of the laws.If the judicial power is combined with the executive power and be vested with the same person, the administrator if justice becomes meaningless and faulty because then executive becomes the judge (judiciary). Finally if all the three organs combined and vested with one person or body of person, the concentration of power becomes so big that it virtually ends all liberty and establishes a despotism of that organs or body.

Q.7. Why is it necessary for a Constitution to place limitations on the rulers can there be a constitution that gives no power at all to the citizens?

Ans : One of the most important functions of a Constitution is to set some limits on the rulers. These limits are fundamental in the sense that the rulers may  never trespass them. Constitutions limit the power of her government in many ways. The popular constitutional provision to limiting the power of the government is to grant some fundamental rights to the citizens like right to freedom of speech, freedom of speech, freedom of conscience, freedom of associations, freedom to conduct a trade or business, etc. 

In normal times these freedoms of the people could not be checked by the government except emergency proclamation. There can’t be any consideration that gives no power to its people. In a monarchical constitution, a monarch decides but in a democratic constitution, then people get to decide. In democracy public view is most essential to pass any bill or policies by the rulers. In a dictatorship also the ruler has to get the support of the people to cling to the power as in the case or Pakistan, where general Musharraf conducts periodic referendum” to justify his hold on power. So it is not possible for a constitution to exist that gives no power at all to the citizens.

Q.8. The Japanese constitution was made when the US occupation army was still in control of Japan after its defeat in the second world war. The Japanese constitution could not have any provision that the US government did not like. Do you see any problem in this way of making the constitution? In which way was the Indian experience different from this?.

Ans : The time when the constitution was made, the US army still occupied the Japan. The Japanese constitution could not have had any provision that the US government did not like. It was due to the fact that constitution is a compact document or set of document that seeks to perform the functions that depend on the interests of the rulers or the interest of the authority in an occupied country. But in the democratic country a constitution expresses the fundamental identity of a people, it gives everyone in society some reason to go along with its provision.

After the independence of India, the constituent Assembly got the responsibility to make the constitution for Indian. It was after the end of the second would war that the British Government through its cabinet mission accepted the demand for the establishment of a constituent assembly for India. At the time of its establishment, the constituent Assembly was not a sovereign body. It stood organised on the basis of the cabinet mission plan. Its powers were derived from the sovereign authority of the British parliament. When on 15th August 1947. India became independent, the constituent Assembly became a fully sovereign body band remained so till the inauguration of the constitution of India. The elections for the constituent Assembly wore held in July 1946. 

The first step was taken towards the goal when pt. Jawaharlal Nehru introduced the objectives Resolution and made specific objectives which were to guide the framing of the constitution. It affirmed commitment to the principles of popular sovereignty, Justice, liberty, Equality, special Protection to minorities, unity and Integrity of the country and world peace. It provided the ideological framework within which the constituent Assembly was to formulate the constitution of India. 

The constitution of India in its very first Article declares, India that is Bharat shall be union of states. It describe India is neither a Federation nor unitary state. It is both a Federation and a unitary state rolled in one.

India establishes a dual polity. Each citizen is subject to two government -the government of the state in which he resides and the Government of India. Like every other federal constitution, the constitution of India decides powers between the union Government and the state Government. It divides all the subjects in 3 parts- 

(1) union subjects.

(2) state subjects.and 

(3) Concurrent subjects. 

The constitution is supreme and no one can violate it. Both the union Government and state Government derive their powers from constitution. In can reject any union or state law in case it is found to be unconstitutional in a judicial review. A bicameral union parliament is again considered as an essential features of Indian constitution where council of State (Rajya sabha) ad the upper house and the house of people (Loksabha) as the lower House. 

The Indian constitution on also provides some unitars features like establish a very strong central government, the power of the centre to reorganise the state or change their boundaries, limitation upon the jurisdiction of states over state subjects, single citizen ship. Ad such India continues to be state with a federal structure and a Unitarian spirit. The constitution-makers did not hide their intention to make the center stinger than the state. They regarded it as an essential necessity for maintaining the unity and integrity of India as s sovereign state.

Q.9. Rajat asked his teacher this question: “The constitution is a fifty years old and therefore outdated book. No one took my consent for implementing it. It is written in such tough language that I cannot understand it. Tell me way should you answer Rajat.

Ans : As a teacher of would answer the Rajat that though our constitution is more than fifty years old, it is still not outdated.As it has been amended more than 90 times up to now, so it could not be termed on old constitution as it has been modified from time to time. This constitution was from by a constitution Assembly. Although the members of the Assembly were elected by restricted suffrage, there was a serious attempt to make the assembly a representative body. 

Members of all communities, classes and religions were given representation in the scheme of the composition of the Assembly. In terms of the political parties the Congress dominated the Assembly occupying as many as eighty two percent of the seats in the assembly. The Congress itself was such a diverse party that it managed to accommodate almost all shades of opinion within it. The constitution was made by credible leaders and its final authority are the Indian people. 

It is not important that every body is directly consulted for make any constitution. The only possible way is to form a representative body which reflect all the communities, classes, and religions of country. The constituent Assembly which framed our constitution could be termed as such a body. Further it is nothing possible to work every provision in lucid and carry terminology as it may increase the bulk size of the constitution . A constitution is at best in codified from.

Variables :- (1) Equality of status that is natural equality of all persons equal and free citizen of India enjoying equality before law. (2) Equality of opportunity that is adequate opportunities for all development. 

For securing the equality of status what is needed is equality before law and end of discrimination or restriction based on grounds of religion, race, sex colour, creed, caste, residence etc. The Indian constitution provides for these under its Article 14 and 

15. It also guarantees equality of opportunity under its Article 16. However, along with it the constitution provides for special protection to women, children, as the weaker sections of society. Thus equality is a cherished goal of Indian constitution.

It is designed to see the dignity of the individual and Integrity of nation. Human dignity was regarded as a supreme value in our national liberation movement.

There will be 3 categories of electorat general, Muslim and Sikh electorate. The elections for the constituent Assembly were held in July 1946. On 11th December 1946 Dr. Rajendra Prasad elected as the president of constituent Assembly. 

The major task of the Assembly was indeed the making of a constitution of India. In the making of the constitution, a very valuable role was played by the Drafting committee. Dr. B.R. Ambedkar was the chairman of the Assembly and other members were B. L. Mitter, N. Gopalaswami Ayyanger, Alladi krishna swami Ayyar, K.M. Munshi, sajid Mohad Saadulla, N. Madhav Rao and D.P. Khaitan. On 26th November, 1949. the constitution was finally adopted and enacted when the constitution was signed by the president of the constituent Assembly and whole constitution was inaugurated on 26th January, 1950.

Q.18. In a discussion on the experience of the working of our constitution, three speakers took three different positions:

(a) Harbans :- The Indian constitution has succeeded in giving us a framework of democratic government.

(b) Neha :- The constitution made soleman promises of ensuring liberty, equality and fraternity. Since this has not happened, the constitution has failed.

(c) Nazima :- The constitution has not failed us. We have failed the constitution.

Do you agree with any of these positions? If yes, why? If not, what is your won positions?

Ans : In this conversation of three people it has been discussed whether the working of our constitution is fruitful or not:

(a) In the first position Harbans gave his own impression that the. Indian constitution has succeeded in giving us framework of democratic government, We know the makers of the constitution presented to the nation a document in the from of our constitution that enshrined fundamental values and highest aspirations shared by the people. And hence it become a living reality. It is a document consisting the supreme and fundamental laws of the country. it decides the composition, powers and functions of the government. The government is formed according to the principles laid down is the constitution of India lays down the powers and functions of the president of India and prime Minister with his council of ministers very clearly. 

It also shows how the organs of government should related to each other. For instance, What the executive can do by itself and what should be the relation between the legislature, executive and the Judiciary, and also, of course, between them and the ordinary citizens. Indian constitution provides different types of safeguards of liberty to the Indian citizens. Separation of powers, Independence of judiciary, fundamental rights, rule of law, etc, are enshrined in our constitution. Democracy has been adopted in India and every effort has been made to strengthen it. 

In the Preamble, India is declared ” A sovereign, socialist, secular democratic republic”. In the preamble it is mentioned that the aim of construction is to provide social, economic and political justice to all the citizens. Adult franchise has been introduced in India. It has been tried in the constitution to establish system of ideal democracy in principle. But in practice India democracy is suffering from various social and economic evils which have proved a curse.

(b) Neha was in the impression that the constitution made soleman promises of ensuring liberty, equality, and fraternity. Since this has not happened the constitution has failed. It is true that our constitution is a unique document whose main purpose was to accommodate the aspirations of the people of india. But as we see today the unconstitutional activities are increasing. Equality of all its (India’s) members, freedom of the citizens is being distributed by some people who have got power and money. 

The elections are likely held fair and free but indirectly money and muscle power is used. Some people of criminal antecedents have succeeded in grabbing political power. Political leaders are playing the politics of vote-bank. The court or the judiciary has to interfere in the working of the executive and legislatures. All problems whether it is terrorism or illegal immigration of foreigners or it is the problem of communial riots or it is Naxalism are to be faced more and more. In such a manner it is right to say by Neha, that the goals are not achieved and the constitution has failed to fulfill the needs of the individuals.

(c) But is Azima has said the constitution has not failed us. We have failed the constitution. We have not applied our efforts honestly to fulfill the promises of our citizens as right to work and to gainful employment, equal pay for equal works, protection against exploitation by individuals, groups or institutions. Still there are 26 percent people who are below poverty line, corruption in polities as well as in public sector is increasing. But all these evils are due to our a representatives and the public as they do not fulfil their duties honestly. The citizens should be enlightened as well as be vigilant. They must be active in public affairs and also help the fellow citizens in the exercise of their rights and discharge of obligations. 

They should cooperate with the government in all its good works. External vigilance is said to be the price of liberty in democracy, and only enlightened citizens can exercise proper vigilance. The citizens should be educated properly and the social  and economic inequality should be curbed. Only then the policies given in the constitution may be implemented thus we can say that the constitution has not failed us we can say that the constitution has not failed us we have failed the constitution.
