I wish to say one word more with regard to Professor Shah’s Amendment that the Minister shall be responsible to the Governor. The Minister has a majority in the Legislature and as such, through the majority, he is responsible to the people. If he is responsible to the Governor, as distinguished from his responsibility to the Legislature and through the Legislature to the people of the State, then he can be overthrown by the majority in the Legislature and he cannot maintain his position. He cannot hold the office. Therefore it is an impossible proposition that a Minister could ever be responsible to the Governor as distinguished from his responsibility to the people through the majority in the Legislature. He should therefore be responsible to the Legislature and the people and not to the President. That is the only way in which under the scheme in the Draft Constitution the government of the country can he carried on.
