R.N.Agarwal vs R.C. Bansal & Ors

The Supreme Court addressed the legality of the High Court's decision to quash the order of the Special Judge, which had taken cognizance of offences under Section 120-B, 420, 468, and 471 IPC, as well as Section 13(1)(d) of the Prevention of Corruption Act. The Court emphasized that the High Court's intervention was unwarranted at the stage of cognizance, as the Special Judge had sufficient material to proceed with the case. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the High Court's order, reinstating the charges against the accused.
