Kathi Raning Rawat vs The State Of Saurashtra on 27 February, 1952
"The majority decision in the Saurashtra case would seem to lay down the principle that if the impugned legislation indicates the policy which inspired it and the object which it seeks to attain, the mere fact that the legislation does not itself make a complete and precise classification of the persons or things to which it is to be applied, but leaves the selective application of the law to be made by the executive authority in accordance with the standard indicated or the underlying policy and object disclosed is not sufficient ground for condemning it as arbitrary and, therefore, obnoxious to Article 14."

The State Of West Bengal vs Anwar Ali Sarkar on 11 January, 1952
5. Reliance has been placed by learned counsel on two decisions of the Supreme Court, --'State of West Bengal v. Anwar Ali Sarkar', AIR 1952 SC 75 (A) and -- 'Ram Prasad Narayan Sahi v. State of Bihar', AIR 1953 SC 215 (B). These two cases, however, are not in point. In the former case, the question arose whether the West Bengal Special Courts Act (10 of 1950) offended against the provisions of Article 14 of the Constitution and was, therefore, 'ultra vires'. It was held that the provisions of the Act did offend against the provisions of Article 14 of the Constitution and were 'ultra vires' and the reason for the decision in short was that for the same offence one person may be tried in accordance with the normal procedure, while another under the West Bengal Special Courts Act.
