Karnataka High Court Rejects Challenge to Conversion of Circuit Benches at Dharwad, Kalaburagi in...

  • The High Court of Karnataka rejected a public interest litigation that challenged the Presidential Order of 2008, which converted the Circuit Benches of High Court at Dharwad and Kalaburagi into permanent benches.
  • The Division Bench of Justice B. Veerappa and Justice K. S. Hemalekha dismissed the petition on the grounds that the petition served absolutely no public interest as the Benches had rendered 'distributive justice' to all the regions.
  • The High Court observed that the plea was against the public interest and people starving for justice, which ignored the dictums of this Court as well as the Supreme Court.
  • Noting that the idea of speedy and quality justice dispensation system could not be treated with a status quo approach, the Division Bench observed that the establishment of these two benches was the need of the hour.
