J Narasimha: we did not have any impact assesment, we see the amount of litigation it has thrown, it could tell us now the vision was right or not.

CJI: your argument, Article 200 would be one instance where Governor would exercise discretion?

CJI: we have some experience how some hon'ble governors have exercised discretion, leading to so many litigations
