An RTI to the Supreme Court of India on Behalf of DHFL Victims for Resolving the Pending Cases

Posted on 10/12/2023 (GMT 16: 54 hrs)

Updated on 10/02/2024 (GMT 13:55 hrs)

In continuation to the online mass petition⤡ of the DHFL victims for suo moto cognizance on 15th May, 2023, we have also personally sent a mass appeal⤡.

Some of the DHFL victims, who are part of the OBMA platform, sent snail mails (cum emails) to the Hon’ble CJI of the Supreme Court of India on 16/11/2023. The text was derived (with minor variations/modifications as per the subject’s circumstances relating to health, pecuniary conditions etc.) from the following article made earlier on this website:


Mass Appeals To The Hon’ble CJI Through Snail Mail and Email

The above article is further based on the following:


Urging for the Hastened Resolution of the Cases Related to the DHFL: a Letter to the Hon’ble CJI

20+ days after (on 09-12-2023) the speed posts (and emails as well), one of the said DHFL victims made an RTI to the Department of Justice, Government of India, asking the following questions:

In connection with my letter dated 16.11.2023, which was received by the Honourable Supreme Court of India on 20.11.2023 through Indian speed post. Please inform me about the following:

1. Whether in connection with the above-mentioned letter, Honourable Supreme Court of India has fixed up any date for hearing of the cases mentioned in my letter (As I am also a victim regarding those particular cases)? (Letter attached with this RTI).

2. If the answer to my question no. 1 is NO, please inform me in writing whether the Honourable Supreme Court of India has taken any initiative regarding the early disposal of the cases mentioned in my letter (Because of the fact that the financial fate of thousands of persons and organisations is involved in this matter)?

The entire RTI application (Reg. No: JUSTC/R/E/23/03278) is given as follows:

The following document was attached (as a supporting proof for the letter sent on 16.11.2023) along with the given application:

Surprisingly enough, on the very same day, it was transferred PHYSICALLY by the Dept of Justice to the Hon’ble Supreme Court for further necessary action.

It remains to be seen what the Supreme Court could do in this regard as soon as possible for the wholesome benefit of all the DHFL victims.

Oh DHFL Victims, let us not lose hope until then!

UPDATE (14.12.2023):

We are amazed by the sheer speed in which the entire process in response to our actions is taking place! After knocking the doors of many gatekeepers, our appeal for suo moto cognizance has reached the very last domestic gate: THE HON’BLE SUPREME COURT OF INDIA. So, it is proved that pressure groups can function in the democratic society, which was tried to be metamorphosed as the crony oligarchical regime!

We have received the following through Speed-post from the Department of Justice on 13/12/2023:

In this process of active participation of the victims, we are trying to save the money of all the DHFL FD and NCD Holders, so that the expensive court-fees could be saved.

Let us hope for the best!

In the Indian Judiciary, the rich gets favoured, and the poor get the gallows, e.g., Mr. Ajay Piramal can take quick “blanket” (?) stay orders from the National Green Tribunal, NCLAT or SC (cf. Ajay Piramal: How Many Times Are You Seeking “Blanket” Stay Orders? VIEW HERE ⤡), as he is more equal than other 98%⤡. However, this type of favouritism is questioned by Adv. Prashant Bhushan and others regarding the chaotic, arbitrary and irregular listing of cases or switching over of benches for the same case!

Do you have faith in the Contemporary Indian Judiciary?

This case proves that pressure group within the ambit of politico-civil society can create a great impact on the decision makers if and only if the argumentative pressure group’s demands are logical enough . So, we are appealing to all of you to be a part of our signature campaign.
