In Brief
This matter concerns a writ petition (originally filed in 1998) in which the Court had earlier issued directions to the State of West Bengal. The State failed to comply with those directions. On hearing the petition again, the Court found continued non-compliance and directed the State's counsel to appear on 28 March 2017 after the State positively complies with the Court's earlier directions by that date. The petitioner's counsel agreed to inform the State of this requirement. The matter was listed for further hearing.
