Supreme Court Rules Against Creation of Third Parliamentary Chamber

The Supreme Court of India has delivered a verdict that a third chamber for Parliament is not permissible, effectively dismissing proposals to add another house to the existing bicameral legislature. The court held that the Constitution does not provide for a third chamber and that any attempt to create one would require a constitutional amendment. The ruling reaffirms the current structure of the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha as the sole legislative bodies in the Parliament. Analysts say the decision will keep the parliamentary system unchanged and prevent any further expansion of the legislative framework.
