ABSTRACT

India is known to follow a federalist form of government, where there is a distinction between the Centre and the State thereby creating a distinction in terms of the laws for the same. Though this separation between the Centre and the State exists, there are certain scenarios when disputes arise between them in respect of the laws framed by each of them. This paper highlights the application of the Doctrine of Repugnancy on the Indian legislations in addition to this, it is also compared to the Australian’s take on repugnancy of its legislations.

Keywords: Doctrine of Repugnancy, Doctrine of Pith and Substance, Australian Constitution, Constitution of India, Repugnancy, Inconsistency of legislation
