Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that a certificate issued under Article 134A of the Constitution must pertain to appeals under Article 132 or Article 133, and cannot be issued if the case does not involve a substantial question of law or is not a criminal proceeding. The Court clarified that the appeal in question did not meet the criteria for certification under Article 134A, as it did not involve a substantial question of law of general importance. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
