Top Cases Heard by Supreme Court of India on 24.05.2024
The Supreme Court of India, on 24th May 2024, addressed several significant matters reflecting the breadth of its jurisdiction and the gravity of legal issues in the country. Here are the key cases heard:
Polling Booth-Wise Voter Turnout Data: The Supreme Court declined to issue directions to the Election Commission regarding the uploading of polling booth-wise voter turnout data on its website during the Lok Sabha elections. In favoring a “hands-off attitude” amidst the ongoing electoral process, the court underscored the importance of maintaining the integrity of the electoral process while respecting the autonomy of the Election Commission.
Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) Interpretation: In a plea related to a money-laundering case arising from the alleged coal block allocation scam, the Supreme Court clarified that the absence of a person’s name in a predicate offence does not preclude prosecution under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). This ruling emphasizes the court’s commitment to upholding the efficacy of anti-money laundering laws in combating financial crimes.
Stay on Uttarakhand High Court Order: The Supreme Court stayed an order of the Uttarakhand High Court directing the state government to identify suitable land outside Nainital for constructing a new High Court building and associated infrastructure. This decision highlights the Supreme Court’s intervention to maintain the status quo pending further deliberation on the matter.
Compliance with Supreme Court Orders: The Supreme Court, while rejecting a petition seeking contempt action for alleged non-compliance with its order on protecting properties of people displaced during the Manipur violence, emphasized the necessity of acting in accordance with the law rather than sentiments. This underscores the court’s commitment to upholding the rule of law and judicial process.
These cases heard by the Supreme Court on 24th May 2024 exemplify the court’s pivotal role in safeguarding democratic processes, interpreting laws, and ensuring justice and fairness in society.
