Prodigy's Fundamental Right to Education Article 21A.

Article 21 of the Constitution of India provides Right to Education. Right to Education cannot be curtailed by imposing a condition regarding age limit. There are several instances which point out that if an underage child can perform exceptional qualities of such student/candidates cannot be suppressed or overlooked merely on the ground of he being underage".

🧾 CHANGE IN UTTAR PRADESH JUDICIAL SERVICE SYLLABUS

The examination shall include the
following subjects and any enactment forming part of the syllabus shall include its 'substituted' enactment

It is similar to section 8 general clauses act, 1897.

Eg. Arbitration Act conciliation chapter ---> Mediation Act.
Eg. IPC----> BNS.


@CurrentLegalGK

For clarification If they write in the annexure that IPC CRPC IEA will come then in addition to them new laws will also come.

It depends upon syllabus but prima facie it looks new laws will only be there ( see APO) ,let's wait for syllabus.

Criminal Courts Cannot Recall Or Review Their Own Judgments Except For Clerical Or Arithmetical Errors: Supreme Court Reiterates
https://www.livelaw.in/supreme-court/criminal-courts-cannot-recall-or-review-their-own-judgments-except-for-clerical-or-arithmetical-errors-supreme-court-reiterates-302131

👀 When can criminal courts review its own judgment and orders and doctrine of functus officio.

Generally

“the criminal courts, as envisaged under the CrPC, are barred from altering or review their own judgments except for the exceptions which are explicitly provided by the statute, namely, correction of a clerical or an arithmetical error that might have been committed or the said power is provided under any other law for the time being in force. As the courts become functus officio the very moment a judgment or an order is signed, the bar of Section 362 CrPC becomes applicable, this, despite the powers provided under Section 482 CrPC which, this veil cannot allow the courts to step beyond or circumvent an explicit bar”

Exceptionally

Court culled out the following exceptional circumstances wherein a criminal court is empowered to alter or review its own judgment or a final order under Section 362 CrPC:

"a. Such power is expressly conferred upon court by CrPC or any other law for the time being in force or;

b. The court passing such a judgement or order lacked inherent jurisdiction to do so or;

c. A fraud or collusion is being played on court to obtain such judgment or order or;

d. A mistake on the part of court caused prejudice to a party or;

e. Fact relating to non-serving of necessary party or death leading to estate being non-represented, not brought to notice of court while passing such judgment or order."

Delhi High Court Upholds Vires Of S.193(9) BNSS On Further Probe, Says It Does Not 'Camouflage' Accused's Right To Default Bail
https://www.livelaw.in/high-court/delhi-high-court/delhi-high-court-section-1939-bnss-right-to-default-bail-302154

Upholded the Constitutional validity of 193(9) of BNSS

Ratio Decidendi
1. So far as the submission that provision of ‘further investigation’ as contained in Section 193(9) is camouflage to defeat the right of the accused person to seek ‘default bail’ under Section 187(3) of BNSS 2023, we may only observe that the provision contained in Section 193(9) and those of Section 187(3), operate in different fields and further that Section 193(9) does not in any manner acts as a camouflage to such right.

2. If a provision of law is misused and subjected to the abuse of process of law, it is for the legislature to amend, modify or repeal it, if deemed necessary. (Padma Sundara Rao vs. State of Tamil Nadu 2002)

3. Thus, what we find is that the power to conduct further investigation as conferred on the investigating agencies under Section 193(9) is not unfettered; the proviso appended thereto contains adequate safeguards on the arbitrary use of the power for further investigation, for the reason that further investigation during trial can be conducted only with the permission of the Court

📃📄You want a certified copy of a case documents in which you are NOT a party?

You have 2 options either to use RTI Act or use High court Rules made under Article 225 of constitution of India.

The court in the following titled judgment held that a third party can in adminstrative matters RTI can be used but on Judicial side HC rules will prevail because HC held personal information as trustee and only HC rules can be used and not RTI.

The fair issue was that Gujarat HC rules prescribed a procedure that while seeking information as third party you need to file an affidavit stating reasons and Section 6 (1) of The RTI Act 2005 clearly provides no need to state reason while seeking information.
