Supreme Court refuses to order blanket ban on demolitions

The Supreme Court on Wednesday refused to pass an interim direction staying demolitions across states, and said it cannot pass an omnibus order preventing authorities from taking action.

The court said that while there is no dispute that the rule of law has to be followed but imposing a blanket on any kind of demolition could prevent the authorities from taking action against the violators.

The top court was hearing pleas filed by the Muslim body seeking directions to the Uttar Pradesh government and other states to ensure that no further demolitions of properties of alleged accused in recent cases of violence are carried out.
