B N Jayadeva v. Union of India
Case brief
What is this about?
The petitioner filed a writ petition seeking quashing of an order prohibiting senior citizens above 65 years from moving out. The Court noted a subsequent government memo advising, rather than prohibiting, movement, and disposed of the petition without further consideration.
What did the court decide?
The writ petition was disposed of without further entreatment as the prohibition had effectively been lifted by a subsequent government advisory.
