The bench of the Punjab and Haryana High Court made this comment on the Supreme Court order passed on July 17. He said that the High Court is constitutionally considered less ‘high’.
‘The Supreme Court’s order is only.
The High Court had said in its order that the Supreme Court should also be careful to be more specific in creating legal consequences through its order. Justice Rajbir Sehrawat’s bench had remarked that the Supreme Court’s order is only in the nature of curbing the powers of the High Court.
