The three AIBSNLPWA SLPs were listed today as Items 59, 59.1 and 59.2 in Court No. 4.

Senior Advocate Shri Nidhesh Gupta appeared for the petitioners.

He informed the Bench that a similar matter arising from the Kerala High Court is already pending before Court No. 8.

The Supreme Court issued notice in our SLPs. This is important because the Court has formally taken notice of the petitions.

The Court has also tagged our three SLPs with the Kerala HC matters.

The Kerala matters could not be effectively heard today because both sides sought adjournment.

Therefore, all five matters are expected to be listed together on the next date.

The next hearing date is not yet fixed/notified. It will appear on the Supreme Court website and will be communicated to the parties.
