Supreme Court Penalizes Engineer with ₹1 Lakh Fine for Repeated Birth Date Litigations
The Supreme Court has imposed a fine of ₹1 lakh on an engineer for filing multiple litigations to change his birth date in service records. The bench, led by Justices J.K. Maheshwari and Rajesh Bindal, remarked that such actions choke the court’s docket with unnecessary cases, hampering the judicial process. The Court emphasized that repeated and frivolous claims burden the judiciary, which should focus on more pressing legal matters, thus discouraging similar misuse of legal resources in the future.
