business ⚖️ Judge defends critic's jab at Delhi Metro judgment
Former Supreme Court judge Justice Abhay Oka defended Justice Ujjal Bhuyan's criticism of the 2024 Delhi Metro judgment. This defense took place at an event in New Delhi where Oka addressed the criticism that Bhuyan's comments might hurt foreign investment. The 2024 judgment set aside a nearly ₹2,800-crore arbitral award, which Bhuyan termed an "unprecedented move." Oka stressed that judges' duty is to uphold what is constitutionally and legally correct, not to secure foreign investment. He praised Bhuyan for taking a bold stand in the current legal environment. ⚖️
