Subramaniam (2024) Supreme Court: Referring to Trial Courts as “Lower Courts” Is Unconstitutional PRABAHAT KUMAR BILTORIA 26 May 2025 The Supreme Court of India ruled that referring to trial courts as “lower courts” is unconstitutional. This decision reaffirms the equality of all courts under the Indian Constitution and highlights concerns about unfair investigation in a criminal appeal. Supreme Court Declares Term “Lower Court” Unconstitutional In a landmark observation, the Supreme Court of India has emphasized that referring to any court as a “lower court” violates the spirit of the Constitution of India. The Court stated that records from a Trial Court should not be labeled as “Lower Court Records.” Justices Abhay S. Oka and A.G. Masih Reinforce Constitutional Values During a recent criminal appeal, a bench comprising Justice Abhay S. Oka and Justice A.G. Masih reiterated the importance of using the correct terminology. They asserted that the term “Lower Court Record (LCR)” should be replaced with “Trial Court Record (TCR).” Registry Circulars Support Supreme Court Directive The Court referred to its earlier judgment dated February 8, 2024, wherein it directed the Registry to avoid the term “Lower Court Record.” Following this directive, a circular was issued on February 28, 2024, formalizing the usage of “Trial Court Record (TCR)” in all official documentation. Case Background: Overturning a Life Sentence These observations came during a case in which the Supreme Court overturned a life sentence previously handed down under Sections 302 and 307 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC). The appellants were initially convicted of serious criminal offenses. Failure of Fair Investigation Highlighted The Court found that the prosecution failed to conduct a fair investigation. It had suppressed vital affidavits from witnesses PW-5 to PW-7, relying solely on the testimony of PW-4. This lack of due diligence raised serious concerns about the reliability of the conviction. Suppressed Evidence and Missing Weapons Adding to the concerns, the weapons of offence were never recovered, and no further investigation was carried out despite the affidavits pointing to critical leads. The Court deemed this failure significant, ultimately determining that the conviction was unsafe under these circumstances. Conclusion: Upholding Judicial Dignity Through Language The Supreme Court’s stance on avoiding the term “lower court” is more than a semantic correction—it’s a reaffirmation of the equality and dignity of all courts within India’s judicial system. By insisting on the use of “Trial Court Record (TCR)” instead of “Lower Court Record (LCR),” the Court sends a powerful message about respecting constitutional values and ensuring procedural fairness. This case also underscores the critical importance of thorough and unbiased investigations in criminal trials, reinforcing the judiciary’s role as the guardian of justice and fairness.

Subramaniam (2024) Supreme Court Quashes FIR Against Professor for WhatsApp Status on Article 370 and Pakistan Independence Day Supreme Court: Bribe Conviction Under PC Act Requires Proof of Demand, Not Just Recovery of Tainted Money PRABAHAT KUMAR BILTORIA 26 May 2025 The Supreme Court of India clarifies that under the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988, a bribe conviction cannot rely solely on the recovery of tainted money without concrete proof of a demand. Read the full judgment details and implications. SC Clarifies Guilt Cannot Be Presumed Without Full Chain of Bribery Events The Supreme Court of India has reaffirmed that a conviction under Section 20 of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988 cannot rest solely on the recovery of tainted funds. In its recent ruling, the court emphasized that unless the full sequence—demand, acceptance, and recovery—is clearly established, the presumption of guilt does not arise. Key Justices on the Bench and Case Background The verdict was delivered by a bench comprising Justice Pankaj Mithal and Justice Ahsanuddin Amanullah. The case involved a public servant accused of demanding a ₹1,500 bribe from a school teacher for forwarding a caste validity certificate. Although tainted cash was recovered and the act of acceptance was proven, the court found no conclusive evidence of a prior demand. High Court’s View Upheld: Demand Must Be Proven The High Court had earlier acquitted the accused, challenging the credibility of the complainant and questioning the existence of a bribe demand. This view was upheld by the Supreme Court. It reiterated that mere payment and recovery are not sufficient for conviction under the Act. Without establishing demand, the chain of events is incomplete. Tainted Cash Recovery Alone Not Enough for Conviction In this case, although a trap was set and tainted money was discovered, the defense argued that the funds were repayment for a personal loan. Since the prosecution could not prove the initial demand, the accused was not required to rebut the presumption of guilt. Final Verdict: Acquittal Maintained, Appeal Dismissed Justice Amanullah’s judgment made it clear: unless the prosecution proves the full chain of events—starting with a bribe demand—the burden of proof does not shift to the accused. Based on the lack of such evidence, the Court saw no merit in the appeal and upheld the High Court’s acquittal. Legal Significance of the Judgment This ruling sets a significant precedent in Indian anti-corruption law, reinforcing the need for concrete evidence of bribery demands in order to convict under the Prevention of Corruption Act. It also protects individuals from wrongful convictions based solely on tainted money recovery, thereby ensuring a fair trial process. Conclusion: Reinforcing Fairness in Anti-Corruption Trials The Supreme Court’s ruling marks a crucial moment in the interpretation of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988, ensuring that convictions for bribery are grounded in a full and fair examination of evidence. By requiring the complete sequence of events—demand, acceptance, and recovery—to be proven, the judgment strengthens legal safeguards for individuals and upholds the principle of justice. This precedent not only clarifies the application of the law but also acts as a guiding light for lower courts and investigative agencies across India.

Subramaniam (2024) Supreme Court Quashes FIR Against Professor for WhatsApp Status on Article 370 and Pakistan Independence Day YouTuber Jyoti Malhotra Arrested for Espionage: No Regrets Over Leaking Info to Pakistan ISI Supreme Court Allows Delhi Government to Withdraw AAP-Era Petitions Against Centre and LG, Including Services Act Challenge PRABAHAT KUMAR BILTORIA 26 May 2025 The Supreme Court of India permits the Delhi Government to withdraw seven key petitions filed by the previous AAP-led administration, including one challenging the controversial Services Act. Learn the legal, political, and administrative implications of this major development. Supreme Court Allows Delhi Government to Withdraw AAP-Era Petitions Against Centre and Lieutenant Governor On May 23, 2024, the Supreme Court of India granted permission to the newly formed Delhi Government to retract seven petitions filed during the tenure of the previous Aam Aadmi Party (AAP)-led administration. These petitions were directed against the Union Government and the Lieutenant Governor of Delhi over administrative powers and the controversial Services Act. Chief Justice B. R. Gavai and Justice Masih Preside Over Plea Withdrawals The bench, headed by Chief Justice B. R. Gavai and including Justice Augustine George Masih, approved the plea withdrawals. Additional Solicitor General (ASG) Aishwarya Bhati, representing the Delhi Government, informed the court that the newly elected government chose to drop the cases, stating: “These matters should no longer trouble this court.” Background: AAP Government’s Legal Battle Over Administrative Control The previous AAP government had filed seven petitions focusing on key governance matters, including: Oversight of administrative services in Delhi The role and authority of the Lieutenant Governor in key committees Legal challenges to the Centre’s amendments to the services law Impact of the 2023 Constitution Bench Ruling In May 2023, a Constitution Bench led by then Chief Justice D. Y. Chandrachud ruled that the National Capital Territory of Delhi holds legislative and executive authority over administrative services—excluding areas like public order, police, and land. Centre Responds With Ordinance and Amendment Act Following the ruling, the Union Government issued the Government of National Capital Territory (Amendment) Ordinance 2023 to dilute the verdict’s impact. In August 2023, Parliament passed the Amendment Act 2023, officially replacing the Ordinance. Key Petitions Withdrawn by the Delhi Government Among the seven petitions now withdrawn, significant cases included: 1. A challenge to the 2023 Amendment Act. 2. An appeal against a National Green Tribunal (NGT) order appointing the Lieutenant Governor as the Head of the Solid Waste Monitoring Committee. 3. A writ petition by the GNCTD accusing its own Finance Department of withholding legislatively approved funds for the Delhi Jal Board. Conclusion: A Turning Point in Delhi’s Administrative Legal Battle The Supreme Court’s decision to allow the withdrawal of key petitions marks a significant political and legal development for Delhi. With the new government choosing not to pursue the cases filed by its predecessor, it signals a shift in strategy regarding the ongoing tug-of-war between the Central Government and the Delhi Government. While the contentious issues around administrative control and the Services Act remain in the spotlight, this move may pave the way for a more collaborative governance model or, conversely, spark new legal and political debates in the future.
