Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Jul-29-1994

Reported in: 1995(4)BomCR688

H.W. Dhabe, J.1. Common, and the only, question involved in these four writ petitions is whether the service rendered by the petitioners therein who are lecturers as Demonstrators or Tutors in which posts they were previously working can be computed in considering the question of their placement in posts of Lecturer (Senior Scale), Lecturer (Selection Grade), and the post of Reader in implementing the G.R. dated 27.2.1989 relating to revision of pay-scales of the teachers of the University and the affiliated Colleges issued by the State Government. These four writ petition can thus be disposed of by this common judgment. We shall, however, consider the facts and deliver the judgment in writ petition No. 927 of 1991, by which the other writ petitions would be governed, since the basic facts in all these writ petitions are the same. 2. The facts in Writ Petition No. 927 of 1991 are that the petitioners therein, numbering 45, were originally appointed in the Colleges affiliated to Nagpur ...

Menino Lopes Vs. State of Goa

Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Jul-29-1994

Reported in: 1995(1)BomCR334; (1994)96BOMLR176

A.M. Bhattacharjee, C.J.1. This application for bail has come up before us from the Goa Bench under somewhat unusual circumstances. An earlier application for bail was filed before a learned Single Judge of that bench who rejected the same. Such rejection, by itself, may not be unusual; but the rejection was made with some extra-ordinarily unusual observations. The learned Judge, while rejecting the application of bail on 13-12-1993, observed that 'the petitioner is bound to remain in custody till the final disposal of the trial'. We are afraid, and this we say with respect, that the learned Judge went too far and in purporting to deprive and divest the accused-applicant of all his rights to move for bail afresh at any subsequent stage of the trial, the learned Judge acted in a manner which is difficult to appreciate. We cannot forget that the right of the accused to move for bail, whether at the pre-trial, trial or post-trial stage, concerns his right to personal liberty under Article...

Arguments were advanced before us by learned Counsel for the petitioners in regard to the scope and ambit of section 194-C of the Act. It was stated that the said section had althroughout been construed by the Ministry of Finance and by CBDT as not applicable to payments made to advertising agencies for professional services rendered by them. It was long 20 years after the incorporation of section 194-C in the Act that the CBDT has reversed its interpretation purportedly on the basis of the decisio...
