What does rule 77 say?
What Does Rule 77 Say, Notices Under Rule 77 of The State Assembly. According to the experts, it is a very common affair to issue notices under Rule 77 of the state assembly as well as passing resolution to this effect in the state assembly.
- Should have a most valid reason as its background to issue notice
- Notice should follow laid down procedure
- It’s not mandatory that the central government should consider resolution passed under rule 77
According to the experts, it is a very common affair to issue notices under Rule 77 of the state assembly as well as passing resolution to this effect in the state assembly. In general, under Rule 77, notices are issued which are of due importance for the entire populace of the state or a group of people pertaining to a community. Such notices may be considered by the speaker to pass a resolution, which in turn is sent to the Chief Secretary of the respective state.
The experts cite the example of notice issued under this rule for the welfare of Dalit Christians in the recent past, as the most appropriate example. In general, the notices issued under this rule are required to be submitted 7 days before to the speaker, so as to pave a way for him/her to take an appropriate decision. If it is an official resolution, the minister concerned inside the assembly hall has to declare that he/she recommends the resolution. The same should be supported by another minister in the state cabinet. Based on this entire chapter, the speaker gives chances to all those members who show interest to speak on the very matter.

Coming back the example of Dalit Christian welfare resolution, it was forwarded to the Chief Secretary of Andhra Pradesh, who in turn forwarded it to the union home ministry. Until and unless the union government takes a decision on this very matter, there will not be any further moves in the state assembly. So far, nothing was heard from the union government on this matter.
It is up to the union government to take a decision on the matter. It is not necessary that the union government should approve all the proposals sought under rule 77, as the same may have impact on all the states. So, the decision taken by the union government undergoes several stages of filtration, before they take any decision. It doesn’t mean that the union government will not consider any resolution sought by the states at all. They consider only if it is appropriate to consider. As far as article 3 is concerned, the parliament and President are the key role players on any decision taken under this article. The state assembly has no role to play at all.
