Book Description
Under the Constitution, the President is the head of the Executive and also a constituent part of the Parliament. This represents a real fusion of the highest executive and legislative authorities. The Constitution makes it incumbent upon the President to address both Houses of Parliament assembled together at the commencement of the first session after each general election to Lok Sabha and at the commencement of the first session each year and inform Parliament of the causes of its Parliament. The Presidential address thus, assumes a very important place as a policy statement of the Government. This address is drafted by the Government and contains a review of the activities and achievements of the Government during the previous year. It also touches upon important internal and current international problems. The address also contains a brief account of Government business for the session. The present volume includes the Presidential Addresses to Parliament from 1952 to 1995. It would be found useful by parliamentarians, researchers, scholars and all those interested in constitutional and parliamentary studies.
