Court Questions Punjab's Special Leave Petition on DA Disbursement

During the hearing on Monday, the Punjab High Court interrogated Principal Secretary K.P. Sinha about the status of the SLP filed by the state. The bench sought clarification on why the petition, which was meant to challenge the DA order, contained several procedural gaps. The court also indicated that it has requested the complete record from the Supreme Court to assess the government's actions. Additionally, the judges asked whether contempt proceedings should be initiated against the state for allegedly defying the court's earlier directives.
