A NCLT member has refused to hear a petition after being approached by a "most revered member of the higher judiciary" to "favor a party." The tribunal's decision, which is a significant victory for the government, was made on the grounds that the person's claim was not supported by evidence. The ruling clarifies that a person cannot file a claim that is not for a valid reason.
