Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the constitutional validity of the Delhi Laws (Special Provision) Act, 2006, which was challenged for overriding its earlier judgment dated 16th February, 2006, that mandated sealing of residential premises misused for commercial activities. The Court emphasized that no law can compel state authorities to disregard judicial directions, thereby reinforcing the supremacy of judicial orders. The Court admitted the petitions and issued a rule, indicating serious challenges to the Act's validity and its implications on previously sealed premises.
