Court had noted that department's officers are taking their jobs very casually. Image
Court said, "This is sorry state of affairs .....This Court is flooded with writ petitions every day simply for a direction upon these officers to decide the grievances."
Therefore, court directed that it is to be ensured that all the matters which come before such officers for consideration, get disposed of 'at the earliest'.
"It is high time that now these officers of the State Government should start working and attend to the grievances which come before them through representations within a period of one month," court said.

lawbeat.in/top-stories/br…
Note: Some News portals have incorrectly reported that Narsinghanand has been granted bail in a case registered u/s 295,509,323,504, and 153A of the Indian Penal Code.

In the instant case, he was arrested only for offences u/s 153A and 295A.
Important observations by the court:
1. The court has noted that the prosecution itself has accepted that the informant in the instant matter, Gulbahar Khan, was not present at the Dharm Sansad. He filed a case only on the basis of a video he saw on Facebook.

Court said that in cases where people wedded to a certain ideology are involved, they do everything possible to prevent the conduct of the trial and such things remain unknown to the media or the outside world.

“On account of such dilatory tactics adopted by the accused, evidences disappear eventually leading to their acquittal. At that time, there will be a hue and cry saying that the system, without any material thereof, had kept the person in prolonged incarceration," court added.

*need not
J: Mr. Mehta, let me clarify, this bench had no role in having the matter listed.

SG: Central government didn't get time. Your Lordship need not clarify anything on that.
J Shakdher: The central government has to take a decision. This is a matter where we want to hear you.

It doesn't gel with us if we keep the matter pending.

You're under instruction, I understand. It's not easy doing a solicitor's job.
