The Supreme Court imposed a fine of Rs 5 lakh on the petitioner, Centre for Law and Good Governance
Coming down heavily on the petitioner, the Supreme Court today rejected a public interest litigation against the order to demolish the Supertech twin towers in Noida.
The Supreme Court imposed a fine of Rs 5 lakh on the petitioner and directed that the amount be used for the welfare of families of lawyers who died of Covid. The petition was filed by an organisation, Centre for Law and Good Governance.
Terming the plea "manifestly perverse", the bench of Justice DY Chandrachud and Justice Sudhanshu Dhullia asked, "Decision has attained finality, how can you move a PIL in the matter?"
The purpose of the petition, the court said, is directly contrary to its verdict in the matter.
