Sibal: see the consequence- Guv says I am withholding the Bill because I believe it is unconstitutional and State passes it again and he still withholds it.

CJI: he can't withhold in second

Sibal: but he does, then what happens? If somebody files a petition, Guv can't become a party and who will defend him? let's not make the constitution interpretion such that it becomes unworkable.
