Said formation of opinion by PM\/CM is expressed by use of word \u201cadvice\u201d under Arts. 75(1); and 164(1); because of immense trust reposed in PM\/CM under the Constitution. However, at the same time, it is a legitimate constitutional expectation from PM\/CM that they would give apposite advice to President\/Governor and would not choose persons as Ministers who have criminal antecedents, especially those facing charges in respect of serious or heinous criminal offences or offences pertaining to corruption. PM\/CM have to bear in mind that unwarranted elements or persons who are facing charges in certain categories of offences may thwart or hinder the canons of constitutional morality or principles of good governance and eventually diminish the constitutional trust. In democracy, people never intend to be governed by persons who have criminal antecedents.
