The Uttarakhand High Court has nullified an eviction directive issued by the State Scheduled Castes Commission, citing the Commission's limited authority to recommend but not enforce binding orders.
A single-judge bench led by Justice Pankaj Purohit made this ruling while handling the case of Rajendra Prasad Kabatiyal, who challenged an eviction order from May 2024.
The court clarified the Commission's recommendatory role without enforcement power, encouraging both parties to seek alternative legal remedies.
