Book: Indian Polity by M. Laxmikanth
Similar to Parliament, state legislative assemblies and councils hold powers to regulate internal proceedings, punish contempt, and protect freedom of speech for members. Members can’t be prosecuted for anything said or voted within the House. Summons can be issued to individuals for breach of privilege. However, undefined privileges occasionally raise legal tussles. Courts maintain privileges can’t override fundamental rights, ensuring a balance. These immunities safeguard legislative integrity, enabling frank debates on public matters. Yet, controversies arise when Houses penalize journalists or bureaucrats. Understanding them clarifies the parallels and distinctions between parliamentary privileges and those at state levels.
