CIVIL APPEAL (Diary) NO. 522 OF 2020
T.M. UMASHANKAR & ORS. Appellant(s)
VERSUS
UNION OF INDIA & ORS. Respondent(s)
O R D E R
Delay condoned.
Having heard Mr. Basava Prabhu Patil, learned Senior Counsel
for the appellant for sometime, even though he has made out a good
point in law, it is difficult for us to interfere given the public
interest involved. However, insofar as compensation is concerned,
Mr. Patil’s clients are free to knock at the doors of whichever
forum in order to seek the aforesaid in public interest if so
payable in law.
Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed.
Pending application stands disposed of.
