Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the High Court of Andhra Pradesh was not justified in imposing costs on the appellants in Writ Petition No.9878 of 2009. The Court set aside the portion of the High Court's judgment related to costs, allowing the appeal in part. The parties were directed to bear their respective costs, reaffirming the principle that costs should not be imposed without sufficient justification.
