Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the schemes published by the Madhya Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation under Section 68-C of the Motor Vehicles Act, 1939, were valid despite objections from private operators. The Court clarified that the authority to hear objections could be appointed under Article 166(3) of the Constitution and that an express finding regarding the fulfillment of the four-fold purposes of Section 68-C was not necessary for the validity of the schemes. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the High Court's decision that the hearing of objections was adequate and real.
