Supreme Court<\/strong>: The bench of Sanjay Kishan Kaul and Hemant Gupta, JJ has imposed a cost of Rs. 50, 000 on petitioners for filing a “publicity interest litigation” seeking initiation of proceeding against former J&K Chief Minister Farooq Abdullah for his “pro-China” comments over the abrogation of Article 370 of the Constitution.<\/p>\n

As reported by India Today<\/a>, Farooq Abdullah had last year, in an interview, said,<\/p>\n

“Whatever they are doing at LAC in Ladakh all because of the abrogation of Article 370, which they never accepted. I am hopeful that with their support, Article 370 will be restored in J&K,”<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Stating that the expression of a view which is a dissent from a decision taken by the Central Government itself cannot be said to be seditious, <\/strong>the Court observed that there was nothing in the statement which we find so offensive as to give a cause of action for a Court to initiate proceedings.<\/p>\n

“Not only that, the petitioners have nothing to do with the subject matter and this is clearly a case of publicity interest litigation for the petitioners only to get their names in press.”<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In a bid to discourage such endeavours, the Court dismissed the Writ Petition with costs of Rs.50,000\/- which is to be deposited with the Supreme Court Advocates Welfare Fund within four weeks.<\/p>\n
