Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in denying the appellant the right to pursue further legal remedies after filing a representation to the National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC). The Court emphasized that a citizen's right to challenge decisions of the State or its agencies is a valuable legal right that cannot be arbitrarily taken away. Consequently, the Court allowed the appeal in part, setting aside the High Court's order that restricted the appellant from moving the Court again regarding the same cause of action.
