The National lawyers’ Campaign For Judicial Transparency and Reforms, Mumbai

Posted by Mathews J Nedumpara

In a country where millions have no roof over their head, the order of the Supreme Court directing demolition of newly constructed, world class apartments, which the common man, a major chunk of which are NRIs, purchased out of their sweat, merely on technical grounds, that too without affording an opportunity to the home owners to be heard is a crime against humanity.
