In Brief
The petitioner sought to challenge the allocation of funds by the Central Government to Jammu & Kashmir on various heads, contending it breached constitutional provisions and sought prosecution of officials under the Indian Penal Code and Prevention of Corruption Act. The Supreme Court held that fund allocation by the Centre to States for security purposes falls within the exclusive executive domain and is not subject to judicial review. The Court ruled that the PIL was not justiciable as budgetary and security decisions are not judicially manageable matters, and accordingly dismissed the petition.
