Supreme Court Seeks List of Pending Black Money Act Cases Before Considering Transfer
The Supreme Court declined the Centre's request to immediately transfer industrialist Anil Ambani's petition challenging the Black Money Act from the Bombay High Court to the Delhi High Court. The bench, led by Chief Justice Surya Kant, asked the government to first provide a list of similar pending cases across various high courts. The court noted that a decision by the Delhi High Court, where related petitions are ready for hearing, could help resolve broader issues. The Centre argued the Bombay High Court petition was inactive, while Delhi's matters were ripe, but the court questioned the preference for one high court over another.
