Whilst SC Registry in Refuge of "There is no Law" regime............

Reg: "If Judges Assets can be made Public under RTI Scheme",

To, date: 7th May,2009
The Hon Chief Justice & Companion Judges
The Hon Delhi High Court
The office of the Registrar General,
Sher Shah Road,
New Delhi - 110003


Hon Justice,

In the backdrop of Delhi High Court going to decide "If Judges Assets can be made Public under RTI Scheme", the writer respectfully impress upon this Hon Court-

a) ambit of equity: Black's Law Dictionary: Aequitas est correctio legis generaliter latae qus parte deficit, meaning- Equity is the correction of that wherein the law by reason of its generality is deficient; Equity is certain correction applied to law because on account of its general comprehensiveness, without an exception, something is absent from it.

b) add value to life: Yet, forms of accountability may differ but the basic idea remains the same that the holders of Public Office must be able publicly justify their exercise of discretionary power not only as legally valid but also socially wise just and reasonable, chiefly designed to add something more to the quality of life of the people. Thus, Every Judge while interpreting laws and making Orders should make a note as to how the Order/ decision reached will benefit people or society at large.

Notwithstanding "fabulous" submissions so made by SC Registry in its defense to undisclose Judges Assets, the Writer is of the view that the Whole issue is boiled down to "If Resolutions passed by Supreme Court has attributes of Law."

Thanking you,

Sandeep Jalan

The constitution of Nine Judges Bench in the Mafatlal Industries Case, Reported in (1997) 5 SCC 536, running into more than 500 pages; the extremely contested Vodafone litigation; and the present Judgment of Bombay High Court running into 310 Pages, at least furnishes some justification to this statement of Rocket Science. There are umpteen Judgments, some of which are relied herein also (Para 147), that whilst dealing with challenge to Taxation laws, greater latitude is shown by Constitutional Courts, only for the reason that Taxation / Economic Legislation, by their very nature, are very complex. And hold on, the Regime of Property Tax based on Capital Value of the Property, was brought in force, on the recommendations of Tata Institute of “Social Sciences”. (Para 33 of the Judgment) Did these Social Scientist, nevertheless very respectable, would appreciate an Inch of what was discussed in 310 Pages of Judgment, even assuming t...
