Dr. D.C. Wadhwa & Ors. vs. State of Bihar & Ors. case of 1986

 The Dr. D.C. Wadhwa & Ors. vs. State of Bihar & Ors. case of 1986 is a cornerstone in the Indian judicial history, highlighting the delicate balance of power between the executive and legislative branches of government . The case stemmed from a practice that had become routine for the Bihar government: the re-promulgation of ordinances without legislative approval, a process that Dr. D.C. Wadhwa, an economics professor, found to be a subversion of democratic principles . The Supreme Court's decision in this case was a resounding affirmation of constitutional law and its supremacy over executive convenience. By declaring the practice of re-promulgating ordinances without legislative consent as unconstitutional, the court reinforced the necessity of legislative scrutiny and the impermanence of ordinances, which are meant to be emergency measures, not a backdoor for enacting laws. This landmark judgment serves as a reminder of the importance of checks and balances within

  The uncontrolled blaze of Canada is a serious issue of concern, which is effecting the ecological balance of the Canadians biological system. the climate change in Canada is the root cause of the wild fires in Canada   . according to the Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC),   After the beginning of industrial revolution the most important cause of climate change in Canada is mainly due to the human activities of burning fossil fuels in a large extent and due to this the vast area of land has been changed from forest to farmlands. Burning fossil fuels produces carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas. It is called a greenhouse gas because it produces a “greenhouse effect”.

Access to education and professional opportunities was limited for women, and if they somehow manage to go out from their house for jobs and employment purposes, they faced discrimination and unequal pay in the workplace.
