CJI Surya Kant Questions Public Support for DAMEPL After Supreme Court Ruling
Chief Justice of India Surya Kant expressed surprise over public support for DAMEPL, a Reliance Infrastructure subsidiary, despite its loss in the Supreme Court's April 2024 arbitration dispute with DMRC. The remarks came during a contempt hearing on DAMEPL's alleged non-compliance with the court's refund order. Justice Ujjal Bhuyan had earlier criticized the curative judgment for reopening the dispute multiple times, calling it damaging to India's arbitration framework and investor confidence. The bench adjourned the matter for four weeks.
