Supreme Court Dismisses PIL Seeking One-Year Case Resolution Mandate

The Supreme Court dismissed a public interest litigation filed by Kamlesh Tripathi seeking a mandate for all courts in India to decide cases within one year. The bench, led by Chief Justice Surya Kant, termed the plea a 'publicity interest litigation' and questioned the feasibility of such a blanket directive. The court discouraged using litigation for public attention and suggested the petitioner submit reform suggestions via letter to the Chief Justice instead.
