Shri Sitaram Sugar Company Limited & ... vs Union Of India & Ors on 13 March, 1990

(See Asif Hameed v. State of J&K1 and Shri Sitaram Sugar Co. Ltd. v. Union of India2.) The scope of judicial enquiry is confined to the question whether the decision taken by the Government is against any statutory provisions or it violates the fundamental rights of the citizens or is opposed to the provisions of the Constitution. Thus, the position is that even if the decision taken by the Government does not appear to be agreeable to the Court, it cannot interfere.
