Section 133 recognizes the constitutional dignity of the President and Governors by exempting them from the ordinary process of personal court appearance. This is rooted in the principle of sovereign immunity and the practical impossibility of requiring the head of state/head of state government to attend court personally. Section 132 deals with exemption of women from personal appearance (now largely outdated), so the two should not be confused.

The text reads: Section 133 CPC: The President of India and the Governors of States are exempted from personal appearance in any court.
