Justice SK Panigrahi

The Orissa High Court has recently dismissed a PIL saying it was mischievous and filed with oblique motives. The division bench of Justice Jaswant Singh and Justice S.K. Panigrahi passed this order while hearing a petition filed by Ashirbad Pattnaik and others.

The Orissa High Court has granted bail to an accused in a case falling within the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985, by applying the ‘doctrine of parity.’
