πποΈ Interpretation of Article 212 (State Legislature) or 122 (parliament

π¨ββοΈCase:Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β
Dr. Sunil Kumar Singh
Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β v.
Bihar Legislative Council
[2025]
π Facts: Ethics committee of Bihar LC expelled one MLC.
π¦Issues: Whether writ petition maintainable against ethics committee order and whether judicial review can be exercised?
β
Held: Yes
βοΈ Ratio Decidendi:
1. The protection under Article 212(1) operates only with respect to the βProceedings in the Legislatureβ on the grounds of βProcedural Irregularitiesβ. It could not have been the intent of the lawmakers to circumscribe Constitutional Courts unconditionally from scrutinising the validity of the actions of the Legislature, which may encroach upon the Fundamental Rights of the members and/or citizens.
2. Proceeding in Legislature:
The procedural steps,debates, motions, amendments, discussions and scruitiny which are not end in themselve but measure to reach outcome. [Immune]
3. Legislative Decisions:
Formal expression of will of house on given matter, authoritative decision after procedural ones.
[not immune]
4. Why not immune?
β To safeguard and uphold constitution by an action of judicial review.
β Interpretation Rule:
Expressio unius est edclusio alterius (express mention of one thing is exclusion of another)
Procedings of legislature on the touchstone of irregularity of procedure is mentioned and immune but legislative decisions are not mentioned hence not immune from judicial review.
β If legislature made rules under Article 208 then this disciplinary action amounts to adminstrative action which though by legislature still it is subject to judicial review if it is unconstitutional, grossly illegal or arbitrary.
πΆ Issue:
Can the constituional courts examine the proportionality of punishment inflicted upon member of legislature?
Yes, because in India jurisprudence proportionality is the core to democratic values.
π Few guiding principles for proportionality to be considered by future courts
A. Degree of obstruction caused by member.
B. Whether crude expressions uttered are deliberate and motivated or a mere outcome of language largely influenced by the local dialect.
C. Previous conduct.
Primary objective of Punishment is to preserve an enviornment of healthy debate in legislature and not retribution and to keep in mind the societal interest, rights of member as well as integrity of house.

XXX v. State of Kerala 2025
Facts:
Petitioner has sent an e-mail to DGP regarding cognizable offemce and DGP forwarded to the concerned police stattion but the FIR was not registered due to no signature and even no attendance can be secured from australia.
Held:
Zero FIR has been introduced with the primary purpose of ensuring that victims can file complaints regardless of jurisdiction.Β Therefore, the police cannot refuse to register an FIR if a cognizable offence is made out in the complaint, even if the complaint is forwarded from a foreign country,β the Court observed.
@CurrentLegalGK
Admittedly, 'intention' is inner compartment of mind of that person and has to be determined from surrounding facts and circumstances. If somebody says that he is in love with another person or expresses his feelings itself would not amount to an 'intent' showing some sort of his 'sexual intention.' What constitutes such 'sexuality' or 'sexual intent' and what is not, is a question of fact,"Β the judge opined.
