STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS
Article 220 of the Constitution prevents a person who bas held office as a permanent judge of a High Court from pleading or acting in any court or before any authority in India except the Supreme Court and the other High Courts . With the meagre amount of pension they get and the small earnings they make by pleading or acting in a court where they are comparatively unknown , the restric- tion placed by the said article causes undue hardship to such persons . It is felt therefore that this restriction should go .
Hence this Bill .

. :
STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS
The present system of appointment of Governors is modelled on the system followed in the days of the British rule . In the context of recent developments , it has been found that this system is not conducive to the cordial relationship between the States and the Centre. While the Gov- ernor has to perform certain executive functions as the head of the State, he must not act as a mere stooge of the Centre ; if his activities are considered by the Chief Minister of the State as improper, he should be recalled .
The Bill seeks to make suitable amendments in the Constitution for this purpose .
