[II (2013) SLT 687] MAINTENANCE — Correction of quantum — No provision under code for amending petition, cannot stand in the way of permitting correction of amount claimed even if that amounts to enhancement of claim, provided adequate reasons and justifiable grounds are made out to seek such correction in petition. [I (2013) DMC 576] CORRUPTION — Gravity of offence not to be adjudged on bedrock of quantum of bribe — If corrosions are allowed to continue by giving allowance to quash proceedings in corruption cases solely because of delay without scrutinizing other relevant factors, a time may come when unscrupulous people would foster and garner the tendency to pave the path of anarchism. [II (2013) CCR 114 (SC)] chance eyewitnesses August 4, 2013 at 5:09pm cases reported in (2013) 5 SCC Part 4 – June 28, 2013 Palwinder Singh v. State of Punjab, (2013) 5 SCC 715 (Criminal Appeal No. 2356 of 2009, decided on May 8, 2013): Where evidence of independent chance eyewitnesses found credible since they only deposed fairly as to facts that they were sure of and did not overstate the case and their evidence was fully corroborated by medical and forensic evidence too, then the conduct of eyewitnesses that they did not intervene to save victim and returned only in the morning to scene of occurrence, is not unnatural. Section 29A of the Representation of the People Act, 1951./RTI August 4, 2013 at 5:08pm The Cabinet observed that the CIC had made a liberal interpretation of Section 2(h) of the RTI Act, leading to an erroneous conclusion that political parties were public authorities. It was also pointed out that bringing political parties under the Act was never visualised when the law was made. The Department of Personnel and Training, the nodal department for implementing the RTI Act, in consultation with the law ministry, moved the amendment, which now specifically says the definition of public authority does not apply to political parties registered under Section 29A of the Representation of the People Act, 1951.
