Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court reviewed the grounds for reconsideration of its earlier judgment regarding the appointment of Lokayukta and Upa-Lokayukta under Section 3 of the Karnataka Lokayukta Act, 1984. The Court found no merit in the review petition, emphasizing the distinction between the Karnataka and Gujarat Lokayukta Acts and reaffirming the primacy of the Chief Minister's advice in the appointment process, as outlined in Section 3(2)(a) and (b) of the Karnataka Act. The review petition was dismissed, upholding the original judgment.
