Central government’s review petition on SIT

The central government has filed a  review petition to withdraw the SIT constituted by supreme court. The governments has appealed to the supreme court to withdraw the SIT on the below grounds.

Economic policy

“It impinges upon the well settled principle that courts do not interfere with the economic policy which is the domain of the Executive and that it is not the function of the court to sit in judgement over matters of economic policy, which must necessarily be left to the expert bodies”. The government has contented that it’s the economic policies of the executives and the court cannot review matter regarding the policies. Any rational mind would understand that executive have the worst of economic policies. What is their policy to allow the black money to flow out of the country and do nothing about it. Is this the policy of the government and the executives?

Separation of power

The government feels that judiciary has gone beyond its powers and there by infringing the powers of the executives, That is SIT take away the power if Enforcement directorate and Intelligence bureau and gives it to SIT . The separation of powers is well established principle and it has to be respected is the contention of the government.

The governments contentions are very clear that they will act slowly and do nothing about corruption and also the black money issue.
