Decided on: Aug-18-2006

Reported in: 2006(91)DRJ236

S. Ravindra Bhat, J.1. The legality and justification of an electricity bill for the sum, of Rs. 1,37,494/- issued by the Respondent BSES Rajdhani Power Ltd (hereafter variously, 'BSES' Ltd and 'the utility') has been questioned, in these writ proceedings.2.

S. Muralidhar, J.Introduction1. Important questions of law concerning the interpretation of Section 5 of the Foreign Trade (Development and Regulation) Act, 1992 (hereinafter `the Act') and certain notifications issued there under arise for consideration in this writ petition. The cause for this invitation to judicial determination is a cross-border transaction that requires the petitioners before us to export 30,000 metric tonnes (MT) of Chick Peas from this country to her neighbour, Pakistan.2. For those needing proof that globalisation of trade is not a recent phenomenon one has only to look at the history and the evolution of cuisines around the world. In many countries, the currently popular cuisine is an adaptation of a foreign one. The popularity in our country of Chinese, Italian and recently Lebanese food bears testimony to this growing trend.
