Bombay High Court Delays Celebi Security Clearance Case
Imagine a company called Celebi that helps planes at airports.
The Indian government took away their permission to work at airports because of national security concerns.
Celebi is fighting this decision in court.
The Bombay High Court is waiting for a similar case's decision from another court in Delhi.
Until the Delhi court makes its decision, the Bombay court has paused the Celebi case.
The company is still providing ground handling services at few airports as of June 13.
Bombay High Court deferred Celebi's petition against security clearance revocation.
The court awaits a Delhi High Court verdict on a similar case involving Celebi.
BCAS revoked Celebi's security clearance due to national security concerns.
Several airports, including Mumbai, terminated contracts with Celebi subsidiaries.
The court adjourned the hearing to July 10, pending the Delhi HC decision.
