Dr. B. Singh vs Union Of India & Ors

The Supreme Court dismissed a public interest litigation filed under Article 32 of the Constitution, questioning the appointment of a judge based on unverified allegations. The Court emphasized that the petitioner lacked personal knowledge of the claims and relied solely on a representation made by another individual, which was insufficient to establish credibility. The Court held that the petition was an abuse of the legal process and allowed the petitioner to withdraw with liberty to file a fresh petition, given that the judge in question had already been appointed.
