Closeness With Power Permits To Get Any Dilutions In The Rules?

If you are close to the power, nothing to worry about. The rules can be twisted or amended even after clear court directions, the source says. This came to light again during a PLI hearing. The PLI was to secure the government accommodation vacated by the occupiers, who are not eligible to hold it, according to the source.

The court directives were clear: vacate the accommodation held by unauthorised occupants. Raina has already submitted his affidavit to vacate within two months, but nothing has happened because he is considered a promising leader of the BJP in J&K, sources say. Similarly, Gulam Nabi Azad is occupying one bungalow and, despite the court's directive, has failed to vacate it, the source says.

In both cases, the government, in affidavits submitted to the court, stated that extensions have already been granted, that the matter has gone to the Review committee, and that, after the Review committee's final order, the government will act, the source says.
