STATE OF U.P.. vs SATISH CHATURVEDI . — C.A. No. 10872/2010

Case Summary: STATE OF U.P. v. SATISH CHATURVEDI (C.A. No. 010872/2010) The Supreme Court set aside the High Court's impugned order dated 17.10.2008 and allowed the State's appeal. The Court found that the High Court had passed multiple directions in a public interest litigation (filed since 1997 regarding electricity supply and cleanliness at Allahabad Medical College) that were beyond the scope of the original prayers and lacked judicial manageability—including orders on staff appointments, finance controllers, and medical shop operations. The Court directed the High Court's Division Bench to dispose of the underlying PIL within six months while adhering to proper PIL procedure guidelines.
