Hello all,
To the extent of my knowledge the Speaker of the House must be informed while arresting a Member of Legislative Assembly outside the premises of the House and the Speaker's permission must be taken in case the arrest is to be done inside the premises of the House. I would like to know as to why such a procedure has been formed and why is it necessary to inform the Speaker? Won't the permission of the Governer of the state suffice?
AND
if the MLA has been arrested on the permission of the Governer of the state what are the defences available to the counsel?
