Dadu @ Tulsidas vs State Of Maharashtra on 12 October, 2000

The second relief sought in the writ petition is against the Union of India. The prayer is that the Union should take action to fulfil clause 6 of the March agreement. The prayer is unsustainable as in substance the relief claimed is against ICRISAT. Furthermore It is doubtful whether the agreement between the Indian Government and ICRISAT is specifically enforceable as such in domestic Courts, particularly when the agreement does not form part of any domestic legislation. The case of Dadu V. State of Maharashtra relied upon by the appellant has no bearing on the issues which arise for consideration in the case before us. In that case, the Constitutional validity of Section 32A of the Narcotics Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985 which prohibited appellate Courts from suspending sentence despite the appeal being admitted, was questioned. The impugned section clearly ran contrary to the provisions of the Criminal Procedure Code which allowed the appellate courts discretionary powers to suspend sentences. One of the arguments raised by the Respondent State to justify this apparent contradiction was that the section had been enacted in discharge of the Government of India's international obligations under the United Nations Convention Against Illicit Trafficking in Narcotics and Psychotropic, 1988. The Court held that the Convention clearly and unambiguously showed that the Convention was made subject to "constitutional principles and the basic concept of its legal system prevalent in the polity of the member country".

(University of Mysore V. Govinda Rao AIR 1965 SC 491) Common law liability of an employer towards his employee has been subjected to statutory limitations under labour laws enacted in this country and the Constitution in so far as particular employees are concerned. In respect of those employees who do not fall in either of these categories the common law principle has to operate.
