High Court Directs NIT Srinagar To Pay ₹5 Lacs Compensation Over Unjustifiable Delay In Appointing Candidates Selected As Jr. Engineers

Case: Faizan Amin and another Vs UOI and another

Coram: Justice Sanjeev Kumar

Case No.: WP(C ) No.349/2022

Court Observation: “To serve the cause of justice and to keep the stream of justice unsullied, it is imperative for the Courts to act tough and discourage the tendency of some litigants to misuse the process of law.”

“Time has come to stay firm on frivolous litigation lest it will prevent the Courts from taking up good causes involving adjudication of vital constitutional and other statutory rights of the citizens. It would be no exaggeration to say that a major portion of Court time is wasted in hearing and weeding out frivolous litigation.”

[It] is quite intriguing and, in any case, without any cogent and justifiable explanation tendered herein by the respondents. It is a case where the things speak for themselves. The delay in offering the appointment letters to the petitioners after 29.01.2022 is, thus, mala fide and for ulterior consideration,”

“Should there be any non- compliance of this order, the Registry shall frame Robkar and place it before the appropriate Bench for orders,”
