| New Delhi, Aug 1: Can courts answer all your prayers? Petitioners seem to expect no less from the judiciary than 'amritdhara' - a medicine used to cure common ailments, pointed out a judge.
Recently, the apex court was hearing a case involving a paper mill set up by the erstwhile ruler of Darbhanga in Bihar. Over a period of time, the mill turned sick and changed hands. For the new owner of the company, it turned out to be a bad proposition and he ran into conflict with a local legislator who too wanted to take over the mill.
To save the day for himself, the new owner moved the apex court seeking relief. Justice T.S. Thakur who was on the bench hearing the case told the senior counsel that his client's prayers were like seeking 'amritdhara'.
He wants the court to appoint a monitoring committee, fight his legal battle and take steps to recover his bad debts as well, said Thakur. (IANS) |
