Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court ruled that the FIR No. R.C. 0062003A0019 dated 05.10.2003, lodged under Section 13(2) read with Section 13(1)(e) of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988, against the petitioner for alleged disproportionate assets, is within the scope of the court's earlier directions in M.C. Mehta vs. Union of India. The Court held that the inquiry into the alleged irregularities related to the Taj Heritage Corridor Project was valid and did not violate the prior orders. Consequently, the petition was dismissed, allowing the investigation to proceed.
