Writ Petition No.1901 of 2016 (Indore); Decided on 29.3.2016.

Advocates:
Rajendra K. Gupta present in person.

Headnote:Constitution of India -- Art.226 -- Motor Vehicles Act, 1988 -- S.19 -- Central Motor Vehicles Rules, 1989 -- R.21 -- public interest litigation -- issuance of e-notice on basis of recording of CCTV camera -- such action of Traffic Police challenged by wrongly impleading parties bytheir names -- it is not case of petitioner that by issuing e-challan respondents are violating any administrative guidelines not having statutory force and causing legal injury to petitioner -- Courts of justice should not be allowed to be polluted by unscrupulous litigants by resorting to extraordinary jurisdiction -- person acting bona fide and having sufficient interest in proceeding of public interest litigation -- will alone have a locus standi to approach Court to wipe out violation of fundamental rights -- petition being devoid of any substance dismissed with cost of Rs.10,000/-.

       Held : Courts of justice should not be allowed to be polluted by unscrupulous litigants by resorting to the extraordinary jurisdiction. A person acting bona fide and having sufficient interest in the proceeding of public interest litigation will alone have a locus standi and can approach the Court to wipe out violation of fundamental rights. 2006(2) Scale 41 and (2014)6 SCC 36 allowed. 2010(3) JLJ 360 (FB) relied on.
