HC raps petitioner for arraigning PM in fake currency PIL
The Bombay High Court today came down heavily on a petitioner for filing a PIL on the issue of fake currency notes and arraigning the Prime Minister of the country as a respondent to the petition. The Bombay High Court today came down heavily on a petitioner for filing a PIL on the issue of fake currency notes and arraigning the Prime Minister of the country as a respondent to the petition. "What does the Prime Minister of this country have to do with the issue of fake currency notes? You (petitioner) should have added the concerned ministry as respondent. Such type of frivolous PILs cannot be entertained. You deposit Rs 10 lakh first to prove your bonafide, then we will hear your petition," a division bench of Justices V M Kanade and Revati Mohite Dere said.
The bench was hearing a PIL filed by one Manoranjan Roy on the issue of fake currency notes in the country. In his public interest litigation (PIL), Roy has added the Prime Minister of India as the first respondent. "He is the Prime Minister of this country and not some Congress leader or BJP leader. Such PILs are filed just to harass," Justice Kanade said. When the petitioner's advocate expressed inability to deposit such a huge amount, the court said "we will hear the petition on February 2. If we do not find any merit in the petition then we will impose heavy cost on the petitioner." PTI SP NP PAL
