Supreme Court Reverses Decision, Allows Justice Prashant Kumar to Hear Criminal Cases

The Supreme Court bench has made a substantial change to its prior decision concerning Justice Prashant Kumar of the Allahabad High Court. The initial order had restricted him from handling criminal cases. Nonetheless, the Supreme Court has withdrawn its earlier order after facing disapproval from the judges of the Allahabad High Court. This action was a result of the Supreme Court’s scrutiny of Justice Kumar’s actions involving a civil dispute that led to criminal proceedings.
