Grounds
Grounds, 'Grounds' within the contemplation of s. 8(1) of the Maintenance of Internal Security Act, 1971 means 'materials' on which the order of detention is primarily based. Apart from con-clusions of facts, 'grounds' have a factual constituent, also. They must contain the pith and substance of primary facts but not subsidiary facts or evidential details. This requirement as to the communication of all essential constituents of the grounds, Vakil Singh v. State of J&K, AIR 1974 SC 2337: (1975) 3 SCC 545.Grounds mean all the basic facts and materials which have been taken into account by the detaining authority in making the order of detention and on which therefore, the order of detention is based, Khudiram Das v. State of West Bengal, AIR 1975 SC 550: (1975) 2 SCC 81: (1975) 2 SCR 832.'Grounds' in Article 22(5) do not mean mere factual inferences but mean factual inferences plus factual material which led to such factual inferences. The 'grounds' must be self-sufficient and self-expl...

Vagueness of ground, irrelevant ground
Vagueness of ground, irrelevant ground, a distinction between grounds which are merely vague and those which are extraneous or irrelevant often tends to be over-looked. Particulars of vague grounds can be, as seen already, supplied even later so as to show that the grounds were justified. If not supplied, the detenu can also ask for them. But, no amount of particulars of it would cure the defect of a ground given which is extraneous to the purposes for which preventive detention may be ordered. Any such ground would vitiate the detention order at its inception. At any rate, this Court could not separate the extraneous or irrelevant ground from the proper and the relevant ones. It could only order the release of detenu because something extraneous to the legally authorised objects of detention had also affected the decision to detain, Prabhu Dayal Deorah v....

Just ground
Just ground, by the Code of Criminal Procedure (Amendment) Act No. 9 of 1949 an additional provision was added after the proviso which may be extracted thus: If a husband has contracted marriage with another wife or keeps a mistress it shall be considered to be just ground for his wife's refusal to live with him. The object of introducing this provision was clearly to widen the scope and ambit of the term 'just ground' mentioned in the proviso. This provision is not exhaustive but purely illustrative and self-explanatory and takes within its fold not only the two instances mentioned therein but other circumstances also of a like or similar nature which may be regarded by the Magistrate as a just ground by the wife for refusing to live with her husband. Under the Code of 1973, this provision has been incorporated as Explanation to the second proviso to sub-s. (3) of s. 125, Sirajmohmedkhan Janmohamadkhan v. Hafizu-nnisa Yasinkhan, AIR 1981 SC 1972: (1981) 4 SCC 250. If a husband has con...
Sufficient ground
Sufficient ground, the words 'sufficient ground' used also in s. 203 and in s. 209 have been construed to mean the satisfaction that a prima facie case is made out against the person accused by the evidence of witnesses entitled to a reason-able degree of credit, and not sufficient ground for the purpose of conviction, Nirmaljit Singh Hoon v. State of West Bengal, AIR 1972 SC 2639: (1973) 3 SCC 753: (1973) 2 SCR 66. (Cr PC, 1898, s. 203 and 209)The words 'sufficient grounds' do not mean sufficient grounds for the purpose of conviction but mean such evidence as would be sufficient to put the accused upon trial by the jury, Ramgopal Ganpatrai Ruia v. State of Bombay, AIR 1958 SC 97: (1958) SCR 618....
fair play and substantial justice
fair play and substantial justice : a requirement or standard of fairness which a court's assertion of personal jurisdiction over a nonresident defendant must meet in order to avoid a violation of the defendant's right to due process see also minimum contacts International Shoe Co. v. Washington in the Important Cases section NOTE: In International Shoe Co. v. Washington, the Supreme Court held that in order for a state court to exercise jurisdiction over a defendant whose residence is elsewhere, the court must establish that the defendant has such minimum contacts with the state that the exercise of jurisdiction over the defendant does not offend traditional notions of fair play and substantial justice. Among the factors used to make this determination are the difficulty for the defendant of appearing in the court, the state's interest in deciding the case, and the plaintiff's interest in the convenience of the court and the effectiveness of the relief to be obtained there. ...
