Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal on the grounds that the certificate issued by the High Court under Article 133(1)(a) and (c) of the Constitution did not meet legal requirements, specifically failing to specify a substantial question of law and lacking supporting reasons. The Court found no substantial question of law requiring determination, leading to the refusal of special leave and revocation of the High Court's certificate. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed without costs.
