New Delhi, Aug 22: The Supreme Court had an interesting piece of advice for a former advocate general of Sikkim whose plea to get his office de-sealed was rejected - manage things instead of taking legal recourse.

Justice Markandey Katju said in this country things are "managed" and that was a better route to address one's problems. "We have a culture of managing the situation," he pointed out.

The former advocate general had moved the Supreme Court seeking a direction to the state government to help him reclaim his office in Gangtok. The court said he should know that such a relief was not available to him as the land on which his office was located had been acquired by the government.

Justice T.S. Thakur said the court had no jurisdiction to tell the state government to de-notify the land it had already acquired.(IANS)
