casestatus.in Summary

Summary: The Supreme Court upheld the constitutional validity of amendments to the Central Vigilance Commission Act 2021, the Delhi Special Police Establishment Act 2021, and Fundamental Rules 2021 that permit extensions of tenure for the Director of Enforcement and Director of CBI. However, the Court held that the specific extensions granted to respondent Sanjay Kumar Mishra violated its earlier mandamus in the 2021 Common Cause case forbidding further extensions, and therefore declared the extension orders dated November 17, 2021 and November 17, 2022 illegal—though allowing him to remain in office until July 31, 2023, for administrative continuity. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
