LG Can Nominate Members To Delhi Municipal Corporation Without Delhi Govt's Consent : Supreme Court In a significant development, the Supreme Court today held that the Lieutenant Governor (LG) of Delhi has the power to nominate aldermen to the Municipal Corporation of Delhi without the aid and advice of the Delhi Government. The Court held that the power was a statutory power flowing the Delhi Municipal Corporation Act and hence the Governor need not act as per the aid and advice of the Delhi Government. Since it was a statutory power and not an executive power, the LG was expected to act as per the statutory mandate and not as per the aid and advice of the Delhi Government. #supremecourt #delhi #delhigovernment #lg #MCD #power #legal #law #justice #judge #legalupdate #legalnews

Many people don’t know this but the Uttar Pradesh high court’s west bench i.e. Lucknow bench has jurisdiction mostly over east UP and east bench i.e. Prayagraj bench has jurisdiction mostly over west UP. An effort to correct the territorial jurisdiction of the Lucknow and Prayagraj benches of the Uttar Pradesh High Court was also made but the same met with resistance. Prayagraj bench lawyers went on strike, opposing the change due to disruption of their established clientele from the jurisdictional areas and livelihood. Whereas, lawyers of Lucknow bench supported the decision. While the move aimed to streamline cases and bring greater efficiency to the judiciary, the strike has left litigants stranded, caught between legal reforms and vested interests. The inability to shift jurisdictions now means longer travel, increased costs, and prolonged wait times for justice, directly affecting the people the system is meant to serve. It’s a reminder of the complexities of reform and the need for balanced solutions that prioritize access to justice. #lawyersstrike #allahbadhighcourt #lawyer #strike

In this case, by the judgment dated 5.4.206, the writ petition of respondent no.1 for direction that NHAI will not levy and collect any fee from the users of Runni Toll Plaza on NH 77 from 7.7.2015 was allowed.  It was directed that NHAI will not levy any fee in terms of Rule 3(1) of the National Highways Fees (Determination of Rates and Collection) Rules, 2008, till completion of the project. On 25.4.2016, the Supreme Court stayed this order and directed to deposit the collected toll on completed portion of highway / road in the nationalised bank. At the final hearing, it was pointed that the Notification dated 26.11.2023 that the section length of 61.70 kms for use of two laning had been completed, length of 20.38 kms of bypasses had also been completed. The Central Government proposed to levy and collect fees. Thereafter, the independent contractor, after verification, issued provisional completion certificate dated 29.6.2015. The toll is being collected by NHAI as the highway is constructed under BOT basis and the contractor is being paid annuity as per the contract. In that context, the Supreme Court held that the judgment of the High Court was not sustainable and that it will be impossible to return the collected road to the road users. It was observed that any order passed by this Court, modifying the interim order, would in fact be detrimental and harmful to the road users as additional amounts would have to be collected to make up for the cost of the highway. #supremecourtofindia #nhai #toll #legaldeli Sham Joshi
