In Guj on Tuesday, Union Home minister says that had the now-abrogated Article 370 been written as constitutional provision instead of a temporary one at the time of drafting, removing it would have required two-thirds of majority

Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Tuesday stressed the need for clarity in laws, stating that judiciary can intervene only when people responsible for drafting legislations leave "grey areas".

He was addressing the Gujarat legislative Assembly here as part of a day-long 'Legislative Drafting Training Workshop' organised for the officials of the Assembly secretariat.

"I know that whatever I am going to speak will create a controversy, but I want to tell you that the judiciary will intervene only when you leave any grey area in drafting the legislation. More clarity in the legislation, less the intervention of courts," Shah said in his address to the House, where MLAs, MPs as well as former legislators and Speakers were present.
