Supreme Court Modifies DND Flyway Order, Addresses Remarks on Ex-Official
Imagine a toll road called DND flyway.
The Supreme Court previously said it should be free because the company running it made a lot of money.
An official who used to work for the company was mentioned in the court's report.
But because the official is now retired, and the court didn't want to cause him unnecessary trouble, they agreed to change the report.
The court looked at a report that said the official wasn't personally criticized, so they made the changes to be clear.
The Supreme Court agreed to modify its order regarding adverse remarks against a former NTBCL official.
The modification was prompted by a request from the official, Pradeep Puri, seeking deletion of personal remarks.
The court cited the CAG report in its decision, which clarified that no personal comments were made against Puri.
The original case involved the DND flyway, where the court ruled it would remain toll-free.
The court previously criticized Noida and governments for misuse of power regarding the flyway.
