Constitutional Betrayal

The multi-party system is only a distortion of the Constitution, resorted to for political gains. Inviting the single largest party head to form governments and the dissolution of governments through no-confidence motions are only malpractices. Change of governments at the centre is done by election or impeachment of the president in the parliament under Article 54 and 61, while it is done by appointing and removing of governors by the president at the states. The Constitution prescribed that the president shall rule this country (Art. 53) with ministers to aid and advise him (Art. 74). Governors are appointed and removed by the president at his pleasure to discharge the same functions at the states (Art. 155, 156). The prime minister is appointed and removed by the president at his pleasure in terms of Article 75. The Supreme Court struck down several constitutional amendments made under Article 368 unjustly. Parliament and the president represent Indian democracy and sovereignty.
No other authority in the country shall be above sovereign power. PPP and Art. 368 i.e. people, parliament, president and Art. 368 are the basic structures of the Indian Constitution. There is no constitution beyond this.The Supreme Court's basic structure theory broke the real basic structure of the Constitution.
