In Brief
Review petitions challenged the correctness of the Puttaswamy (Aadhaar-5J.) judgment regarding whether the Aadhaar Act was a 'Money Bill' under Article 110. The majority dismissed the petitions, holding that change in law or subsequent coordinate bench decisions cannot themselves constitute grounds for review. However, a dissenting judge argued the petitions should remain pending pending a larger bench's decision in Rojer Mathew that had specifically expressed doubts about Puttaswamy's analysis, citing principles of judicial consistency and the rule of law."
