AI extract
What is this about?
In this petition, the petitioner challenged Statute 37 of the Jamia Millia Islamia Act, 1988, claiming it violated Constitutional Articles 14 and 16 due to lack of inquiry procedures. The two-judge bench held that natural justice is inherent in the statute and found no legal ground for the challenge, citing a 2012 precedent.
What did the court decide?
The challenge to Statute 37 was rejected; the statute is held constitutional with natural justice provisions inherent in its terms.
