Supreme court and NBA 2000 p.3990-994 11 Nov By taking a very formal view of issues like rehabilitation and environment, the Supreme Court, in the Sardar Sarovar case, seems unfortunately to be suggesting its withdrawal from the larger role which it had assumed in recent decades. This is cause for concern because through judicial activism the court has played the role of legitimising and channelling various movements for social change and social justice. The dissenting judgment of Justice Bharucha, however, encourages hope that the trend of going back to the narrow legalistic paradigm of the judicial process will not be shared by the entire court. - Reproduced Supreme court Narmada Bachao Andolan Dams Rehabilitation Economic and Political Weekly 46708 46708 46708 0 0 0 0 IIPA IIPA 2018-07-19 Volume no: 35, Issue no: 46 AR47136 2018-07-19 2018-07-19 AR
