Case Summary: On 16 April 2001, the Supreme Court heard the Special Leave Petition filed by Devta Vishveshwar Mahadev against the Union of India challenging the High Court of Himachal Pradesh's dismissal of a contempt petition. The Court, after reviewing the High Court's order dated 27 September 2000 and the affidavit filed by the Superintending Archaeologist of the Archaeological Survey of India, found the High Court's dismissal to be correct and accordingly dismissed the SLP. The petitioner was not barred from approaching competent authorities for any grievance in accordance with law.
