Notification disallowing use of donor gametes in surrogacy contradicts principles under Surrogacy (Regulation) Act, 2021 and Assisted Reproductive Technology (Regulation) Act, 2021: Delhi High Court<\/a><\/p>\n

Petitioners before this Court were intending couples availing surrogacy services under the Surrogacy (Regulation) Act, 2021<\/a> (‘Surrogacy Act’), whose long-anticipated surrogacy procedures had been abruptly halted on account of the Notification No. 179(E) dated 14-03-2023, issued by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (‘Impugned Notification’), by which the use of donor gametes in surrogacy procedures was disallowed by amending Paragraph 1(d) of Form 2 under Rule 7 of the Surrogacy (Regulation) Rules, 2022 (‘Surrogacy Rules’).<\/p>\n

The Division Bench of Satish Chandra Sharma, C.J., and Sanjeev Narula, J., held that prima facie, the Impugned Notification violated the basic rights of a married infertile couple to parenthood by denying them access to legally and medically regulated procedures and services.

Further, the Court opined that petitioners possessed a vested and constitutionally protected right to parenthood and the amendment could not be allowed to retroactively render their legally fertilized embryo unviable.<\/p>\n

‘Failed to implement 4% reservation criteria for persons with benchmark disability’; Delhi HC sets aside 2018 recruitment advertisement published by Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan<\/a><\/p>\n

The petitioner, National Federation of the Blind (‘federation’) was aggrieved by non-implementation of statutory reservation for Persons with Disabilities (‘PwDs’), particularly for blind persons, in recruitment process by respondent, Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan (‘Sangathan’). The petitioner seeks implementation of statutory and constitutional mandate regarding reservations for persons with visual disabilities.

The Court further held that the impugned advertisement distinguished persons with disabilities from others and had put a restriction on their potential to participate in the recruitment process to their full ability and as per Section 33 of the Act, the primary function of identification of posts was of appropriate government, thus, there was no power with respondent or its committee to revisit and cut short the list notified by the government.<\/p>\n

“An act of discrimination is not only a denial of promise of equal protection before the law. Rather, every act of exclusion is an assault on the dignity of a person. Instead of providing an equal space to grow, we have been compelling the persons with disabilities to prove, time and again, that they are capable of a lot more than we think.”<\/p>\n

In a petition filed against the initiation of the Departmental enquiry against the petitioner where it was alleged a case where a young tribal girl was harassed for almost five years, a single-judge bench comprising of Satish Chandra Sharma, J., held that the departmental inquiry was not related to the incident that provoked the petitioner to resign, but regarding her absence from duty. The resignation was treated as withdrawn. The Court carefully went through the charge sheet and it was not a case where the petitioner was involved in committing a crime in respect of some act relating to moral turpitude, embezzlement or any other heinous offence. A mere case where the petitioner was not provided a posting order, in spite of her repeated request and charge sheet has been issued for not joining the duty. However, the Court did not grant back wages to the petitioner.<\/p>\n

In a review petition seeks to reconsider the order dated 24-06-2015 where a plea bargaining arrangement was reached, and the trial court disposed of the matter, with the complainant receiving the entire amount per the order, a single-judge bench of Satish Chandra Sharma, J., dismissed the petition as the same does not exhibit any error apparent on the face of the record.<\/p>\n

[Omprakash Agrawal<\/span> v. Hemendra<\/span>, 2015 SCC OnLine MP 7542<\/a><\/span>]<\/p>\n

While deciding whether the Assessing Authority had sufficient reason to believe that the petitioner’s income had escaped assessment, a division bench comprising of Shantanu Kemkar and Satish Chandra Sharma,*<\/span> JJ., held that there was a valid reason to believe that income had escaped assessment because though the petitioner had furnished information about parties from whom it received cash, but the identity of these parties was doubtful. The Court declined admission, noting that the petitioner had an alternate remedy under the Income-tax Act, and there was no ground for interference.<\/p>\n
