Justice BR Gavai: at the first blush section 20A argument is attractive but on harmonious construction the argument is without substance

#PuriHeritageCorridorProject
SC: can state be denied to make necessary arrangements to provide basic facilities to devotees ? the answer is an emphatic no
#PuriHeritageCorridor
SC: Hue and cry was made and heavens will fall if the matter is not heard. Activity undertaken is in sync with our earlier order of Mrinalini Padhi case

#PuriHeritageCorridor
SC: in the recent past there is a mushroom growth there is an increase of publicity interest litigations. We deprecate the practice of filing such FIL its a waste of judicial time and it needs to be nipped in bud so that development work is not stalled #PuriHeritageCorridor
SC: All petitions dismissed as without merit

The Supreme Court comes down harshly on a party:

"This is nothing but a luxury litigation between two warring factions to exert control over an educational institution. Thus we impose exemplary costs. Party hs to pay Rs 1 lakh to SCAORA and 1 lakh to SCBA."

#SupremeCourt Image
Justice BR Gavai: When a law requires something to be done in a certain manner it has to be done in that way or not at all. We warned you of costs but you went on arguing for 22 minutes.
Justice Gavai: "We deprecate the practice of filing such luxury litigations. Hence the cost of 2 lakhs."

Sr Adv: I thought it has merit

Justice Gavai: But we warned you. Cost of 2 lakhs to remain.

Justice Gavai: Sr Adv Mukul Rohatgi states that Singh has indulged in tampering of evidence and HC has ignored it. This present application is nothing but a totally unwarranted exercise by the state
Justice Gavai: While considering bail HC does not have business to deal with status of applicant and it is about the individual right. In Disproportionate assets case most is documentary evidence where there is no chance of tampering.
