The court expressed its displeasure Fine of Rs 2000 (Cost) have put. Now you must be wondering what does a fine of Rs 2000 mean in the case of an MP? But in legal language it is called ‘damage’ or ‘cost’, which is enough to show that the court will not tolerate negligence.

Let us understand in simple language why the court took this step and what is the whole matter.

What is the matter? (The Context)

This entire matter is related to BJP MP from Godda Nishikant Dubey. Hearing was going on on the petitions related to or quashing some of the FIRs registered against him. The case revolves around alleged cattle smuggling or statements/actions related to it, which often remains a heated issue in Jharkhand politics.

Why was a fine of Rs 2000 imposed? (Reason behind the fine)

According to reports, the High Court had asked the State Government and the parties concerned to file an ‘Affidavit/Response’ in this matter. That is, the court wanted to know what investigation has been done so far in this case or what the police has to say.

But, even after the stipulated time had passed, the reply was not filed. In view of this delay, the court adopted a strict stance.
The court expressed its displeasure against the defendants. Financial penalty of Rs 2000 (Cost) have put. This money does not have to be deposited in any government treasury, but often in a bar association or some fund. This is like a ‘warning’ not to waste the court’s time.

Court asked for answer

Not only fine was imposed, but Jharkhand High Court has given strict instructions that within the next two weeks (or by the next date) the reply should be filed. The court has made it clear that the hearing will not proceed without a concrete answer.

What does it mean?

The war of words and legal battles between Nishikant Dubey and Hemant Soren government is nothing new. Nishikant Dubey is often vocal on illegal activities happening in Santhal Pargana (like Bangladeshi infiltration or cow smuggling), due to which cases are often registered against him.

This action of the High Court shows that the judiciary wants the police and the government to act swiftly in these high-profile cases and not keep the files hanging. Now everyone’s eyes are on what answer the government gives to the court in the next hearing.
