Supreme Court Highlights Misuse of Article 32 Constitutional Remedy Petitions

The Supreme Court expressed concern over the increasing misuse of Article 32, which allows citizens to seek constitutional remedies for fundamental rights violations. A bench led by Justice B V Nagarathna criticized the filing of petitions under Article 32 even when related cases are pending in high courts or for matters like adjournments. The court described such petitions as a gross misuse of judicial process and dismissed the recent petition highlighting this issue.
