Supreme Court To Hear PIL Seeking Compensation For Bulldozer Action Victims

The Supreme Court will hear a new Public Interest Litigation (PIL) on October 14 regarding bulldozer actions across the country. Alok Sharma and Priya Mishra, residents of Delhi, filed the petition through lawyer Narendra Mishra. The PIL demands compensation for those affected by wrongful bulldozer demolitions.

PIL Calls for Public Disclosure and Compensation

The petition urges that the names of officials involved in bulldozer actions and those affected should be made public. It also seeks compliance with proper legal procedures, suggesting that bulldozer actions should only be approved by District Judges or Magistrates. The petition calls for transparency, requiring details of such actions to be disclosed to the public.

Supreme Court’s Role and Pending Guidelines

The petition demands that compensation for wrongful actions be recovered from guilty officials, along with appropriate punitive measures. It emphasizes that victims should receive full compensation for their losses. The Supreme Court has already banned bulldozer actions nationwide and reserved its decision on issuing further guidelines.
