Unable to concur with Certain directions issued in the decision in the case of Asian Resurfacing of Road Agency Private Limited & Anr. v. Central Bureau of Investigation [2018] GCtR 4067 (SC).
“Constitutional Courts, in the ordinary course, should refrain from fixing a time-bound schedule for the disposal of cases pending before any other Courts. Constitutional Courts may issue directions for the time-bound disposal of cases only in exceptional circumstances. The issue of prioritising the disposal of cases should be best left to the decision of the concerned Courts where the cases are pending.”
“The pattern of pendency of various categories of cases pending in every Court, including High Courts, is different. The situation at the grassroots level is better known to the judges of the concerned Courts.”
