Abstract

Ordinances have turned into the favoured method for presenting legislative enactments; that progressive governments from each shade of political opinion have made liberal utilization of this instrument; even the most standard and commonplace statutes are regularly being introduced by issuing Ordinances, after which the law-making body is given a fait accompli; that undoubtedly, Ordinances issued on the guidance of the Ministers, instead of Bills presented and discussed in Parliament or State Assemblies, has become normal. Despite this, I believe that the power of the Executive to promulgate ordinances should be amended, so that the Executive’s actions can be kept in check by the legislature and the judiciary. In this essay, I have made a note of the various instances from where the need to amend the power of the Executive arises (certain cases which justify the need for amending the Executive’s power of promulgating ordinances).
