#SupremeCourt hears a plea pertaining to reopening of statutory panels in Jammu and Kashmir.

#SupremeCourt #SupremeCourtOfIndia #JammuAndKashmir
SG Mehta: NHRC will be the commission because it's Jammu and Kashmir, a UT. Women and Child Rights Commission is also ready, members will be notified.

#SupremeCourt #SupremeCourtOfIndia #JammuAndKashmir
Adv Asim Sarode: There are no offices for NHRC in Jammu and Kashmir. This is about access to justice.

SG Mehta: We'll have offices.

CJI: So we'll record your submission that ehere offices are not made available they will be made available so access to justice is not impeded.
SG Mehta: My learned friend is a pune based lawyer, he may not be aware.

Justice Narasimha: We're not concerned with lawyer. You say after the Reorganisation Act came into force NHRC is the commission. So question is if there are any questions, it would be adjudicated in Delhi.
Justice Narasimha: So Jammu and Kashmir has no State Human Rights Commission, unless we record your submission that NHRC can have a sitting either in Jammu and Kashmir and virtually.

#SupremeCourtOfIndia #JammuKashmir
CJI DY Chandrachud: And you find a mechanism so that people in Jammu and Kashmir can file their grievances. We'll keep it on next Friday and you can inform us of the status.

Govt of India and #Delhi Govt cannot hide behind the veil of corporate personality especially when it comes to the discharge of binding obligations owed by the DMRC: Delhi High Court on payment of dues of an arbitral award to Reliance Infrastructure-owned DAMEPL. #DelhiMetro
In any case public policy demands that the veil be lifted and they be commanded to take appropriate steps to enable the DMRC to meet the obligations flowing from the award: Delhi High Court #DelhiMetro
The two shareholders are not mere individuals having a business interest in a corporate venture but sovereign governments in their own right. Governments cannot shirk from their liability to abide by binding judgments, decrees and awards: Delhi High Court
