Does Article 361 Bar Investigation Against Governor? Supreme Court Seeks AG's Assistance On WB Governor's Immunity In Molestation Case

The Supreme Court of India is reviewing whether Article 361 of the Constitution, which provides immunity to Governors from legal proceedings, prevents an investigation against the West Bengal Governor in a molestation case. The Court has sought the assistance of the Attorney General (AG) to determine if the Governor’s immunity applies in this instance. The case involves allegations of sexual misconduct against the Governor, and the legal question is whether his constitutional protection extends to such criminal investigations.
