India's Supreme Court has upheld Article 31C of the Constitution, which grants legal protection to laws enacted to fulfill Directive Principles of State Policy. This decision reaffirms a portion of the landmark Kesavananda Bharati case judgment while acknowledging the limitations imposed by the Minerva Mills ruling on the article's scope.
Justice Hrishikesh Roy playfully remarked on the Supreme Court's recent judgments, complimenting Chief Justice D.Y. Chandrachud's extensive contributions to the court's 'intellectual resources' while also lightheartedly requesting contributions from other benches in the CJI's remaining days in office.
Justice B V Nagarathna disagreed with Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud's criticism of the Justice Krishna Iyer Doctrine, calling it unwarranted. Both Nagarathna and Justice Dhulia defended the doctrine's humanist principles and its relevance to India's socio-economic context at the time.
The Supreme Court ruled that private property cannot be broadly categorized as community resources under Article 39(b) of the Constitution. This overturns a 46-year-old socialist interpretation, asserting that while the state can distribute resources for common good, it must be determined on a case-by-case basis and should not assume all private assets are inherently community-owned.
The Supreme Court ruled against extending the concept of 'material resources' to private assets, reigniting the debate on wealth redistribution sparked during the Lok Sabha elections. The Congress party had proposed equitable distribution of assets based on caste, drawing criticism from the BJP, who labeled it as vote bank politics.
