Apex court refuses to interfere with HC orders on vendors

The Supreme Court today refused to interfere with the Punjab and Haryana High Court orders on removal of vendors from the no-vending zones.
The Supreme Court asserted: “Since the High Court is seized of the proceedings in the civil writ petition and is monitoring the entire issue pertaining to the carving out of vending and non-vending zones, we are not inclined to exercise our jurisdiction under Article 136 of the Constitution”.
For these reasons, we leave it open to the petitioners to bring the grievance to the notice of the High Court.
Subject to the above observations, the SLP is dismissed,” the Bench added.
The Bench had also directed the competent authority in the Municipal Corporation and the UT Administration to consider and pass appropriate orders.
