SG: Governor shall declare, he has three options- grant assent- facets of it? at the outset, if he grants assent, Bill becomes Act. If he defers, he can take decision and resort to proviso and return the Bill, fourth option. Bill is returned with or without modification.

What is second? withhold- standalone option-complete action

CJI: According to you, Punjab is wrongly decided?

SG: yes. At outset, if he withholds, patently unconstitutional, the bill falls through. Question is- instead of taking this route, he resorts to the proviso- it is returned to the House and if comes back, he has two options- he can assent or reserve. Third, one new element, when the reserves at outset, first can be for repugnancy. Certain provisions in Constitution mandates state legislature passing law, Presidential assent required- for instances, Article 31(3) etc.
