BCI should frame rules to regulate conduct of litigants appearing in person: Delhi High Court in plea seeking ‘absurd reliefs’

The Court, however, held that the relief sought by the petitioner are inherently absurd and fell outside the scope of what relief it can grant.

“It is also strange that the petitioner is aggrieved that there was no criminal record of him, available with police. It is not understandable why he wants a criminal record to be created by police against him. There are provisions to provide such a record, but it cannot be created by police to satisfy someone’s whims and fancies. Rather the authorities have shown patience and replied over 150 times as admitted by petitioner himself.”

The Court concluded that the petitions are frivolous and vexatious as they challenged, demeaned, criticised and used language which is undeniably embarrassing and scandalous.

“It was also devoid of any real issue being set out in intelligible form. The pleadings, reliefs and declarations sought from this Court were impossible to respond to for the sheer magnanimity of their absurdness. Due to the above reasons, this Court finds that filing of these writ petitions is certainly an abuse of process of law.”

The plea was ultimately dismissed.
