Tularam vs The State Of Madhya Pradesh

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of Tularam under Section 302 IPC for the murder of Bhadri Lodhi, affirming that the act was committed with the intention to cause death as per Section 299 IPC. The Court clarified that the evidence presented, including eyewitness accounts and the autopsy report, established the culpable homicide beyond reasonable doubt. The Court found no merit in the argument that the act was committed in the heat of passion or sudden quarrel, thus rejecting the applicability of Exception 4 under Section 300 IPC.
