Supreme Court Withdraws Restriction on Justice Prashant Kumar Regarding Criminal Cases

In a significant development, the Supreme Court bench has altered its decision concerning Justice Prashant Kumar of the Allahabad High Court. The court had previously barred him from hearing criminal cases. However, after facing opposition from the Allahabad High Court judges, the Supreme Court has reversed its order. This situation arose from the Supreme Court’s displeasure with Justice Kumar’s handling of a civil dispute that had led to criminal proceedings, which prompted the initial restrictions.
