PANJIM: Notwithstanding the decision of the CAC to recommend filing a review petition in the Supreme Court the State’s Advocate General has opined that “filing a curative petition before the Supreme Court does not arise”.
The AG’s opinion was incorporated in the note placed before the Cabinet Advisory Committee, prepared by the Secretary Finance. Some of the brief points of that note are:
* Mines dept of the view that full compliance of Supreme Court order has to be done wef 16.03.2018
* Advocate General is of the view that since the judgment revolved around the provisions of the MMDR Act 1957, filing of curative petition doesn’t arise
* AG concurs with former AG and now Additional Solicitor General (Atmaram Nadkarni) that there’s NO reason why State government should be giving largesse to existing lease holders.
