@extinctinwild I feel the same after giving about 15 tests. How you expect to at least improve as the number of revisions increase, on the contrary I became increasingly doubt ridden. I’ll take the advice, thanks !!


I don't know what's the purpose if making the tests this way. They are targeting their energies just to get those 5 random obscure questions right and claim that they make test papers at par with UPSC. 
I think writing open tests is a better way of assessing oneself since there we have the percentile scores to get the idea of our standing.

It is suspensive veto of the governor. When a bill is sent for assent means it already has the approval of the cabinet and the legislature, so obviously the govt will not ask the governor to send it for reconsideration.Governor sending for reconsideration becomes discretionary because ideally he must approve it based on the advice of council of ministers. .

I don’t think “ constitutional discretion “ powers are explicitly mentioned as “discretionary “ in the constitution. It is only inference. In general governor has very wide discretionary powers. What powers are in his ‘discretion’ is also his discretion.

The line wrt financial bill 1 seems irrelevant. Reading it with bare act further generated doubts.

Does it mean that President recommendation is not required in case of tax abolition/reduction ?

Can state legislature change the jurisdiction and powers of HC?

No, according to Article 230: Parliament may by law extend the jurisdiction of a High Court to, or exclude the jurisdiction of a High Court from, any Union territory.

Wrt. To powers - Parliament and the state legislature cannot cut the powers and jurisdiction of the High Court as guaranteed by the Constitution.
