1. Mr. Khalid Jahangir Qazi, a national of United States of America holding the status of an Overseas Citizen of India,1 has invoked the jurisdiction of this Court under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, 1950, seeking entry to India. He challenges the legality of two restrictive measures imposed upon him - order dated 12th May, 2023 issued by the Consulate General of India, New York,2 cancelling his OCI card under the Citizenship Act, 1955,3 and the Citizenship Rules, 2009; and a subsequent blacklisting order issued by the Ministry of Home Affairs, under the Foreigners Act, 1946,4 restraining his entry into India. The underlying basis of these actions, as asserted by the Respondents, is the Petitioner's alleged involvement in activities deemed to be prejudicial to the interests of India.

1. This Letters Patent Appeal1 is directed against the judgment rendered by the learned Single Judge on 19 February 2013 in terms of which an Award rendered by the Industrial Tribunal2 has come to be upheld. In terms of the Award dated 05 October 2005, the petitioner- appellant was directed to frame a policy of regularisation in respect of the respondent workmen. Both the Tribunal as well as the learned LPA Tribunal Single Judge have essentially held against the appellant on the ground that the engagement of the respondent-workmen through a contractor was merely a ruse to overcome the obligations which would have stood attached in case it were to be recognized to be the principal employer.

1. After having heard the argument of learned counsel for applicant for half an hour, he could not convince us as to how Relief (A) sought in the present Original Application regarding quashing of the purported Forest Clearance dated 29.09.2016, which is annexed at page nos.47 to 49 of the paper book and purported Forest Clearance dated 27.03.2017, which is annexed at page nos.50 to 53 of the paper book, which are issued in favours of M/s Shri Mandar Gadkari and M/s. Salim Khan and others respectively, under Section 22A of the Maharashtra Private Forest (Acquisition) Act, 1975 for regularization of constructed bungalows, servant quarters, poultry, garage, swimming pool with Jacuzzi, road and laying of underground water pipeline and electricity cable along the road and other allied purposes in Raigad District of Maharashtra, subject to the conditions contained therein, fall in our jurisdiction because the said Act i.e. Maharashtra Private Forest (Acquisition) Act, 1975 does not fall in the Schedule- I of the National Green Tribunal Act, 2010.

11/11/2024 This application for bail under Section 483 BNSS 2023 has been filed by the petitioner who has been arrested in connection with FIR No. 0006/2024, registered at Police Station Rawatsar, District Hanumangarh, for offences under Sections 363, 366-A, 354-D IPC and sections 5(l)6 and 11/12 of POCSO Act.

As per the prosecution, the petitioner on the date of alleged incident forcibly took the victim Mst.'R' away from the company of her mother and took her to Rawatsar, Nyolkhi, Sonadi etc. Thereafter, the victim Mst.'R' was subjected to forcible sexual assault-rape by the present petitioner.

Learned counsel submitted that the petitioner has been falsely implicated in the present case. Learned counsel submitted that a bare perusal the statements of the victim Mst.'R' would indicate that at the time when she was being forcibly taken away [2024:RJ-JD:45324] (2 of 3) [CRLMB-8220/2024] from the company of her mother, neither she nor her mother shouted for any help. Further, while she was forced to travel with the petitioner in public transportation to various places, she despite having ample opportunities did not shout for any help or inform anyone about the incident. Learned counsel submitted that the behaviour of the victim Mst.'R' is highly unnatural and indicates that she has levelled false allegations against the petitioner only with a view to falsely rope him in a criminal case.

Order 12/11/2024 This application for bail under Section 483 BNSS has been filed by the petitioners who have been arrested in connection with F.I.R. No.21/2024 registered at Police Station Gangasheher, Dist. Bikaner, for the offences under Sections 323, 341, 354, 307 and 143 of IPC.
