Nikhil Bhamre, accused of putting objectionable tweets against NCP Chief Sharad Pawar, has approached Bombay High Court seeking quashing of FIRs registered against him.

#SharadPawar #nikhilbhamre #BombayHighCourt

@PawarSpeaks @NCPspeaks
Adv Subhash Jha appearing for Bhamre: There are 4 FIRs against a 22 year old.

Court: 22 years can be looked at both ways. Responsibility is also there.

#SharadPawar #BombayHighCourt #nikhilbhamre
Jha: But there are rights.

Court: Whatever rights we assert are subject to restrictions. There are restrictions with fundamental rights. We have right to enjoy but not to interfere in someone’s right to peaceful life.

Bombay High Court hearing PIL seeking criminal prosecution against a group of individuals for forging various deeds and operating educational institutions.

#BombayHighCourt
CJ: Why not approach the Magistrate under Section 156 of the CrPC? To register FIR? Or to direct initiation of investigation?

Counsel for petitioner: But the parties are influential.

#BombayHighCourt
CJ: If we do not ask the litigants to follow the statutory provisions then it is not good. We have taken an oath to follow the law. We have to ensure that it is followed.

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.
