The court said that you are apologizing after being caught doing wrong. We do not want to be too liberal in this matter. The court also reprimanded the Uttarakhand State Licensing Authority for inaction in this matter and said that we will take this matter seriously. The Supreme Court bench of Justice Hima Kohli and Justice Ahsanuddin Amanullah told the State Licensing Authority that we will expose you. The state licensing authority did nothing except forward the files and remained in deep slumber on the issue for four-five years. The officials concerned should be suspended.

Rejecting the affidavits of Ramdev and Balakrishna, the court said that when show cause notices were issued to Ramdev and Balakrishna and they were ordered to personally appear before the court, they tried to get out of the situation where the individual Attendance was required, which is the highest. unacceptable. Passing the order, the bench said that considering the entire history of the case and past conduct of the respondents, we have expressed our objection to accepting the final affidavit filed by them. Senior advocate Mukul Rohatgin, appearing for Ramdev and Balkrishna, told the bench that your client talked a lot the next day after getting bail.
