Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the Special Leave Petition for failing to demonstrate sufficient cause for a delay of 341 days in filing, thereby upholding the High Court's order. The Court emphasized that the delay was significant and not adequately explained, leading to the dismissal on procedural grounds. Additionally, the Court referenced its earlier judgment in Civil Appeal arising from Special Leave Petition (Civil) No. 3559 of 2006, which affirmed the High Court's decision, further supporting the dismissal of the current petition.
