Presidential Reference case

Presidential Reference on Powers of the Governor and President, also known as Presidential Reference case,[1] is a matter heard by the Supreme Court of India regarding the Court's authority to impose deadlines for the Governor and President under Articles 200 and 201 of the Constitution.

The matter arose out of the powers of the President of India, under Article 143 of the Constitution, to seek Supreme Court’s advisory jurisdiction on questions of law or fact. The president referred a total of 14 questions arising out of the judgement in State of Tamil Nadu v. Governor of Tamil Nadu.[2]

The case was heard by a five-judge constitution bench of the Court led by Chief Justice of India B. R. Gavai.[3] The court heard the matter for ten days and reserved its judgement on 11 September 2025.[4]
