The Supreme Court has reserved its judgment regarding the legality of bulldozer demolitions in certain cases. The Court heard arguments about establishing an online portal to monitor such actions and bring them under judicial oversight.

The outcome will determine if enhanced judicial oversight is required to protect individuals from arbitrary state actions.
