Summary: In Civil Appeal No. 1521 of 1996, the two-judge bench of Justices V.N. Khare and B.N. Agrawal heard arguments from Union of India (appellant) and Raja Mahendragirji and others (respondents) on October 11, 2001. The judges disagreed on the key legal question of whether a decision under Section 7(3)(a) of the Act constitutes an independent proceeding or is part of Section 7(1) proceedings. Consequently, the bench referred the matter to a three-judge bench for resolution and directed the Chief Justice of India to assign the case accordingly.
