ORDER

“WHEREAS, I, Ram Nath Kovind, President of India, have received a report

from the Administrator of the Union territory of Puducherry dated 22nd February, 2021

and after considering the report and other information received by me, I am satisfied

that a situation has arisen in which the administration of the Union territory of

Puducherry cannot be carried on in accordance with the provisions of the Government

of Union Territories Act, 1963 (20 of 1963) (hereinafter referred to as "the Act");

NOW, THEREFORE, in exercise of the powers conferred by section 51 of the

Act and of all other powers enabling me in that behalf, I hereby–

(a) suspend, until the constitution of the 15th Legislative Assembly of

Puducherry, in relation to the said Union territory of Puducherry, the operation of the

following provisions of the Act, namely:–

sub-section (1) and clause (a) of sub-section (2), of section 6 ;

in section 7, sub-sections (1), (3) and (4), clauses (b) and (c) of sub-section (2)

and the first proviso to that sub-section and so much of sub-section (5) as relates to

the salaries and allowances of the Deputy Speaker;

sections 8 to 12 (both inclusive), sections 15 to 17 (both inclusive),

section 22 and section 24;

so much of sub-section (1) of section 27 as requires the previous approval

of the President and so much of clause (c) of sub-section (3) of the said section as

relates to the salaries and allowances of the Deputy Speaker;

so much of sub-section (1) of section 30 as requires the previous approval of the

President: section 33, sub-section (2) of sections 34 and 36 ; sections 44 and 45;

sub-section (1), and the following provision, namely, "whether taken on the

advice of his Ministers or other-wise" in sub-section (2) of section 46: and

so much of section 50 as relates to the Council of Ministers; and

(b) make the following incidental and consequential provisions which appear

to me to be necessary and expedient for administering the Union territory of

Puducherry in accordance with the provisions of Article 239 of the Constitution during

the aforesaid period, namely:–

(i) the Legislative Assembly of the said Union territory is hereby placed

under suspended animation;

(ii) in relation to the said Union territory, unless the context otherwise requires,

any reference in sections 23, 27 to 31 (both inclusive) and section 49 of the Act to the

Administrator shall be construed as a reference to the President and any reference in those

sections and in section 48 to the Legislative Assembly of a Union territory by whatever

form of words shall, in so far as it relates to the functions and powers thereof, be construed

as a reference to Parliament;

(iii) in relation to the said Union territory, the reference to the Legislative

Assembly of a Union territory in section 26 shall be construed as including

a reference to Parliament.
