Whether HC can entertain delayed petitions under A.226 ? Supreme Court Answers The Question
Article 226 of Constitution of India is important.
In an important case [citation : Delhi Administration v Kaushilya Thakur [2012] GCtR 4216 (SC)] it has been reiterated that "in exercise of the power under Article 226 of the Constitution, the High Court cannot entertain belated claims unless the petitioner offers tangible explanation".
This proposition can be utilised in cases of compassionate appointment so that appointments are based on merit and not on basis of family relations.
