Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the Madhya Pradesh High Court exceeded its jurisdiction by intervening in the operational matters of the Railway administration, which are not subject to judicial review under Article 226. The Court emphasized that the management of train schedules and resource allocation falls within the purview of the executive, and the judiciary should refrain from micromanaging such administrative functions. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the High Court's interim orders directing the Railways to make specific changes to train services.
