Need to ponder, why it is difficult to implement law passed by Parliament: Union minister Rijiju
Description
NEW DELHI: Union law minister Kiren Rijiju on Saturday, without referring to farm laws in the presence of CJI N V Ramana and President Ram Nath Kovind, said just like a judgment passed by the Supreme Court, a bill passed by the Parliament is also law of the land and need to ponder why it is difficult to implement. He was speaking at the second day of the valedictory ceremony of Constitution Day celebrations. “We can’t see such a situation when the government or court takes a decision. When the SC delivers a judgment, it is the law of the land. Likewise, when Parliament or Assembly passes a law, that is also a law of the land.” He emphasized that how can a situation arise where a judgment or law passed by the Supreme Court, high courts, Assembly and Parliament, becomes difficult to implement. “Then we have to ponder about it. Whether it is legislature, judiciary or executive or any part of the society. Still, we have to think. Because we are following the Constitution and the country is also going by the Constitution”, he said. Rijiju also pointed out that he is observing a trend, where some people are too conscious of their rights and do anything to get their rights, but at the same time they forget the rights of others and some also forget their duties.
