💨 Abstract

The Supreme Court ruled that a Foreigner's Tribunal's decision declaring someone an Indian citizen cannot be reviewed by a coordinate bench in a separate proceeding. The court set aside a Guwahati High Court order that had refused to intervene in such a case, allowing an appeal filed by Rejia Khatun, a woman from Assam who was facing two proceedings before two different benches of the Foreigner’s Tribunal.
