Apex court asks Centre to place before it the communication issued to RBI on November 7, 2016, recommending policy

The Supreme Court on Wednesday directed the Centre and the RBI to file comprehensive affidavits to justify the demonetisation decision of 2016, rejecting the government’s contention that the issue was now merely “academic” and any hearing would be a “waste of the court’s time”.

The apex court asked the Centre to place before it the communication issued to the RBI on November 7, 2016, recommending demonetisation.

The bench of Justices S.A. Nazeer, B.R. Gavai, A.S. Bopanna, V. Ramasubramanian and B.V. Nagarathna posted the matter for further hearing to November 9, by when the government and the RBI are expected to file their affidavits.

“We want to see them. You cannot keep them away from us. Also file a comprehensive affidavit,” Justice Nazeer, heading the bench, told attorney-general R. Venkatramani.

The bench brushed aside the suggestion by solicitor-general Tushar Mehta that the court need not deliberate on the academic issue and the precious time of the constitution bench need not be wasted.

“In order to answer the issues, we will hear and give an answer whether it is academic or beyond the scope of judicial review. The point in the case that we need to examine is the government policy and its wisdom, which is one aspect of the matter. We also know where the Lakshman Rekha is, but the manner over which it (demonetisation) was done has to be examined,” Justice Nazeer observed.

Senior advocate Shyam Divan, appearing for main petitioner Vivek S. Narayan, had objected to Mehta saying the matter was a “waste of time” and pointed out that the issue had been referred to the constitution bench after detailed arguments on the validity of the demonetisation policy.
