R. Pandian And Anothera. Deivendran Son ... vs State Of Tamil Naduthrough The ... on 21 October, 1997
"...The adverse impact of lack of probity in public life leading to a
high degree of corruption is manifold. It also has adverse effect on
foreign investment and funding from the International Monetary
Fund and the World Bank who have warned that future aid to under-
developed countries may be subject to the requisite steps being taken
to eradicate corruption, which prevents international aid from
reaching those for whom it is meant. Increasing corruption has led to
investigative journalism which is of value to a free society. The need
to highlight corruption in public life through the medium of public
interest litigation invoking judicial review may be frequent in India
but is not unknown in other countries: R v Secretary of State for
Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, (1995) 1 WLR 386.

Gramophone Company Of India Ltd vs Birendra Bahadur Pandey & Ors on 21 February, 1984
4.4.3. Added to the above, the Rules requiring
compulsory filing of Property Declaration are consistent with
International Conventions of the United Nations. The Apex
Court in Gramophone Co. of India Ltd. v. Birendra Bahadur
Pandey6, has said that in the absence of contrary legislation,
municipal Courts in India would respect the rules of International
Law, which would include the International Conventions &
Treaties. In interpreting Rules of the kind, Courts would so
construe them, if possible, as will not violate any established
principle of International Law. The Property Declaration of a
public servant shall avail in public domain so that such public
servants are under a continuous glare of public eye. Any
member of the public can scrutinize the same and bring to the
notice of concerned higher-ups, if declaration is defective or
deceptive. It is almost on par with the declaration of assets &
liabilities by the People's Representatives (MPs & MLAs) inter
alia under Section 33-B of the Representation of the People Act,

AIR 1984 SC 667 (Para 6).
Rai Sahib Ram Jawaya Kapur And Ors. vs The State Of Punjab on 12 April, 1955
4.6.2. The Apex Court in Rai Sahib Ram Jawaya Kapur v.
The State of Punjab7, observed that our Constitution recognizes
the doctrine of separation of powers, though not as strictly as the
U.S. Constitution does it. In Indira Nehru Gandhi v. Raj
Narain8, this doctrine has been held to be a basic feature of the
Constitution. One organ of the State cannot arrogate to itself the
powers of other. Each should show deference to the decision of
other. Each has to operate within the sphere constitutionally
allocated to it. Sages of law shun the trespass of one into the
realm of another. An argument to the contrary would make
Montesquieu (1689-1755), the father of this doctrine, to shiver
in his grave.
