In Brief
The Supreme Court considered appeals against an interim order passed by the High Court in a writ petition. The Court substituted the High Court's interim order with a modified interim arrangement, requiring the High Court to dispose of the writ petition afresh without being bound by any interim observations. The Court clarified that it had not examined the merits and that all parties' contentions, including on maintainability, remained open. The matter was remitted to the High Court for expeditious final disposal within three months, with no costs awarded.
