Vice President Jagdeep Dhankad while addressing the 83rd All India Presiding Officer's Conference at Rajasthan made a statement that Keshwanand Bharati had set a wrong precedent.

He also said that the parliament makes law. Supreme Court sets it aside. Whether the law made by the parliament would be the law of the land when it is approved by the Supreme Court. In the year 1973, a wrong tradition was started. The Supreme Court gave the idea of Basic Structure in that case that the parliament can amend the constitution but cannot change the basic structure. I want to tell the Court with the respect that I do not agree with this. The house can change it. 

This house shall tell if it could be done. Whether this could be permitted that any other institution would review the decision of the parliament. We could move with collaboration and not fight. The ultimate power is with the legislature. "The executive is ordained to be in compliance with the constitutional prescription emanating from Parliament. It was obligated to adhere to the NJAC. Judicial verdict cannot run it down."

He further said, "Parliament sovereignty cannot be permitted to be diluted to compromised by the executive of the judiciary.

He also said that "in a democratic society the basis of any basic structure has to be the supremacy of the mandate of people, therefore, the primacy of sovereignty of Parliament and Legislature is inviolable"

The Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla and CM Ashok Gehlot also attended the function.
