We found no other Supreme Court judgment we hold that cites this one.
Counted only in the Supreme Court judgments we hold whose text we could read, not in High Court judgments. We match each citation to a judgment automatically, so a citation we cannot match is not counted. "Cited" says only that a judgment refers to this one, not whether it followed, distinguished or overruled it.
The Court's text
Paragraphs from our copy of the Supreme Court Reports print, with the Court's own paragraph numbers, the printed page and, where printed, the margin letter. The Court did not number this judgment's paragraphs, so they are listed by page. Link to paragraph N with #para-N.
By our Order dated May 5, 1997, we ordered constitution of a Committee of three advocates, namely, S/Shri P.P. Rao, Harish Salve and Arnn Jaitley, learned senior counsel of this Court. The Committee was requested to visit the Tis Hazari Courts and to submit a report on the vacant rooms for being handed over, if directed by this Court, to the High Court for establishing the Courts. Pursuant to the above direction, the members of the Committee visited the premises on 8th May, 1997 (instead of 4th July, 1997, i.e., the date given for inspection) .and have given the report. The report indicates that Room Nos. 346, 347, 354-A, 354-B, 359, 156, 145, 361, 361-B, 361-C, 361-D, rooms adjacent to Room Nos. 361, 274-A and 274-B are vacant. Though their report also indicates that Room No. 348 is vacant, in view of the assertion made by Mr. D.N. Goburdhan that this room is being used by the Tehsildar, we direct that Room No. 348 ·may be retained by the Revenue Department and rest of the rooms be handed over to the Registrar of the High Court within six weeks from today. On so being handed over, the District Judge of the Tis Hazari Courts should submit a reporJ ,to the High Court on amount required for setting up the courts in the above rooms within four weeks from the date of taking the possession. The Registrar of the High Court is directed to place the matter before the Administrative Committee dealing with it. The learned Judges dealing with it are requested to finalise the estimate and then the learned Chief Justice is requested to submit it to the Government for appropriate administrative and financial sanction. The NCT is directed to give the requisite sanction within four weeks from the date of the receipt of the report. Thereafter, the Registrar is directed to hand it over to the CPWD for establishing the courts in the above rooms, which would have them complete within two months thereafter.
