Not Available vs Not Available

The Supreme Court was asked to provide a presidential reference under Article 143 regarding the interpretation of Article 174(1) of the Constitution. The core issue was whether the mandatory requirement that six months shall not intervene between the last sitting of a Legislative Assembly and the first sitting of the next session applies to an Assembly that has been dissolved. The reference sought to clarify if fresh elections must be held within six months of the last sitting of a dissolved Assembly.
