Nos.5(a) to 5(d).
CORAM : A.S.OKA, &
A.K.MENON, JJ.
DATE : MARCH 2, 2015
P.C.:
1After having perused the averments made in the
petition and in particular from paragraphs 5 to 7
and the reply of the deceased respondent No.5, we
find that there is a question mark on the locus of
the petitioner to maintain this PIL. Faced with
this difficulty, the learned counsel for the
petitioner states that the petitioner will not press
this PIL.
2Though we are disposing of this PIL, we make it
clear that the issues raised in this PIL are
expressly kept open. We have made no adjudication
on the issues raised in this PIL. Subject to what is
observed above, we dispose of the petition.

As recorded by the court registry
Litigation brought on behalf of the public interest rather than a personal grievance, relaxing the usual rule of locus standi.
