Dhankhar takes on judiciary: Article 142 has become a nuclear missile, you can't direct the President | Video

Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar openly criticised the Indian judiciary on Thursday (April 17) and called for constitutional reforms. VP Dhankhar proposed amending Article 145(3), which deals with the composition of the Bench to decide substantial questions of constitutional law. "We cannot have a situation where you direct the President of India, and on what basis? The only right you have under the Constitution is to interpret the Constitution under Article 145(3). There it has to be five judges or more," he said.
