Singhvi: question 8, Article 143 reference-is President required to mandatorily come everything there is doubt- nobody is saying that President is mandatorily obliged to come under Article 143

CJI: that has arisen in view of the two-judge

Singhvi: we all agree that she is not obliged. But that is a wrong impression given-the two judge does not make it mandatory-see the language-completely distorted question asked-it is an empowering para-it is a measure of prudence

CJI: what is ought to other than mandamus?

Singhvi: prudence means discretion as in an option-'may not be mandatory' is the first option and as measure of prudence she can do that.
