Explanation
The phrase 'Procedure Established by Law' is borrowed directly from the Japanese Constitution. This contrasts with the US setup which follows 'Due Process of Law'. Under the Japanese model, a court evaluates if a law is passed by a valid legislature using proper procedures, though the Indian SC has expanded Article 21 via case laws to match American standards.
