What is the role of the Governor in the administration of justice in autonomous districts and regions?
The Governor plays a crucial role in the administration of justice in autonomous districts and regions under the Sixth Schedule. The Governor can confer powers under the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908, and the Code of Criminal Procedure on District Councils, Regional Councils, courts, or officers for the trial of certain suits, cases, and offenses. The Governor can also withdraw or modify any powers conferred on these councils, courts, or officers. Additionally, the High Court exercises jurisdiction over certain suits and cases as specified by the Governor.
