Key Delhi High Court Rulings Unveiled

The Delhi High Court addressed significant issues, such as rejecting a PIL for compensation related to cancelled IndiGo flights, requesting the state to enforce fare compliance in public transport, and questioning the regulation of used vehicle sales, highlighting their role in a recent security incident.

The Delhi High Court made several important decisions, engaging with public interest matters affecting the national capital. Notably, the court declined to entertain a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) that sought compensation for passengers affected by IndiGo's ticket cancellations last November and December, citing changes in the Flight Duty Time Limitation regulations.

Addressing urban transport challenges, the court demanded that the state government outline measures it has taken to enforce its 2023 notification related to fare regulations for auto rickshaws and taxis. This move aims to ensure that drivers are adhering to set pricing standards, maintaining fairness and transparency for commuters.

Additionally, concerns over the regulation of used vehicle sales were brought to the forefront following a bomb blast in the city. The High Court questioned the city government's efficacy in controlling such transfers, stressing the potential security risks posed by inadequately regulated second-hand vehicle markets.
