Article 19

Respected sir,
I want to know whether there any precedents curtailing the freedom of press in criminal investigation?or whether there are any State Acts preventing media's undue influence in criminal investigation? Does media's intervention in the above amount to contempt of court?

300A OF COI

Where lies the difference between ‘a fundamental right’ & ‘a constitutional right’?
Art. 300A shifted from Fundamental right to Constitutional right vide forty-fourth amendment act, 1978.
“CHAPTER IV : RIGHT TO PROPERTY.
300A. Persons not to be deprived of property save by authority of law. – No Person shall be deprived of his property save by authority of law.”
What is the constitutional meaning of the words ‘save by authority of law’
Can anybody enlighten me on Art. 300A of The Constitution of India? What is the property under art 300A?

OBC certificate

sir i want to know about the criterion of creamy layer for sons/daughters of govt
servants. My father is working as a class-3 employee and was appointed in class-3. now
his age is 57 years. The annual income for three finacial years 2008-09, 09-10, 10-11 are about 4.1 lakhs, 5.5 lakhs, 5.1 lakhs.

I want to ask whether this salary is taken into account for central OBC certificate OR it is determined only on the basis of class/group of govt. servants only( Income is from salary alone). In my area they are including the salary and so they are refusing me the certificate. Whether i am come in creamy layer or not?

In my state, on the certificate it is written that "annual income of ****** not exceeds 5 lakhs for three consecutive years" I want to understand its meaning-- whether the income limit 5 lakhs written on the certificate is including the salary or not?
please reply...its urgent..
thanks.

Would it really be 'Contempt of Court'

Dear all,

I found the following on a Newspaper site. I do not agree with this Advocate. How do you feel?

Contempt of court! by Adv Govind Usno Bhobe, Panjim

http://www.oheraldo.in/newscategory/Letters/13

In a landmark judgment reported in ‘AIR 2001 Bombay 60’, the Bombay High Court held that any amendment sought by a passport holder for making corrections regarding date of birth, the Passport Authority is competent to do this. Such matters need not be referred to a Judicial Magistrate; they are overburdened and are not conferred with such jurisdiction under law. The judgment also gave standing directions to the Passport Authority to hold an enquiry and effect necessary changes in respect of change of date of birth or place of birth.

However, whenever an application is made to change wrongly recorded date of birth or place of birth, the office of the Passport Authority, Panjim, directs the aggrieved applicant to get a ‘court order’. This shows scant regard for the High Court’s order.

I wrote several Registered AD letters to the Passport Officer, Panjim, to bring to his notice this High Court order, enclosing copies of the order. Notwithstanding, the Passport Authority has not mended its way. Is this not contempt of court? Bureaucrats should not ignore the cardinal principle that service to mankind is their motto.

Full Bench

Jurist Good Evening

1) As we know that 1 judge means single bench.
2 judge means double bench.
3 judge means Full bench.
5 judge means consitutional bench but if there are 9 & 13 judge than which bench it is ?

Also it has been said by the indian consitution, 1949 that there should not be more than 9 judge than while a case of 13 bench judge ?

2) Section 225 of the criminal procedure code, 1973

In every trial before a Court of Session, the prosecution shall be conducted by a Public Prosecutor. so can we say that the lower court below the session court there are no public prosecutor or what ?

Difference between interim bail, regular bail & anticipatory bail ? which section defines the following bail ?

Thanks.
