Order on Exhibit

The Additional Sessions Judge at Panvel granted the applicant Ajit Tanaji Sawant's application for court's no-objection to renew his passport, holding that a pending criminal case alone cannot deny the fundamental right to passport renewal. However, the court imposed a restrictive condition requiring the applicant to obtain prior court permission before leaving India to ensure his availability for trial in the defamation and SC/ST Atrocities Act case. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
