Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision regarding the maintainability of a writ petition filed by victims of the Uphaar theatre fire, asserting that the complex nature of causation and liability in such cases makes it unsuitable for resolution through writ jurisdiction. The Court emphasized that the petitioners' concerns about procedural fairness could be addressed in the High Court, and thus, there was no justification for interference with the High Court's order. The petition was ultimately rejected, affirming the High Court's stance on the matter.
