SIGNIFICANCE OF STEPS OF AN ORDINANCE
During the period of prime minister Indira Gandhi, she made many ordinances in an emergency tenure.
Which is one significance being the 38 amendment of the constitution states that 'No judicial review should be on ordinance'.
Later on by 44 amendment of Constitution, it made that there must be a judicial review on the ordinance.
This is what our forefathers of Constitution makers have feared because this will be used as to tool to make laws on their own.
When some bills reference to the standing committee, those bills should not be brought in the form of an ordinance, and the finance-related aspects should not be brought in the form of an ordinance.

MISUSE OF AN ORDINANCE
Issuing an ordinance is against the spirit of the Constitution.
Some governments are issuing an ordinance to escape from the majority in houses, because if they introduce it in the house perhaps they may be unable to get the majority, due to this fear the governments are opting for an ordinance as a tool to overcome this hurdle.
It was a wrong belief for the executive government to promulgate an ordinance merely because of a shortage of time that means the power.
It has to be exercised only when there is an emergency and only in which the legislative can't meet to take necessary actions.
It means sometimes that it imposes on legislation through an ordinance with the consent of the president.
This means that it can meet its objective without the consent of the majority in the houses.
CONCLUSION OF THE DEBATE
Ours is a parliamentary system of government in which to make a law in parliament we must debate, discuss, and criticize these should be Permitted to make a law.
Without these, making a law is contrary to the sole principle of the Constitution.
When necessary the ordinance should be used, but not to make laws in their favor is not permitted, this is a violation of Constitution policy.
It should be used as an emergency tool but not as a tool to replace the power of making laws of their own.
