THIS WRIT APPEAL HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD ON 09.09.2020, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: W.A.1083/2020 3 “C.R.” JUDGMENT Dated this the 9th day of September, 2020 Manikumar, CJ Instant writ appeal is filed by respondents 1 and 2, against the common judgment passed in W.P.(C) No.14341 of 2020 and other connected cases dated 22.07.2020, by which, a learned single Judge of this Court disposed of the writ petitions, by ordering thus: “................It is an admitted fact that the company petitions nine in number were pending before the NCLT. In the impugned order itself, the NCLT refers to the prayers in the company petitions and post the matter for hearing of the I.A. to 7.8.2020. The learned counsel for the petitioners has submitted that the proper course of action is to file an appeal before the NCLAT. It is submitted that such a course of action is presently rendered impossible due to the prevailing pandemic situation in the country and the petitioners are disabled from travelling to Delhi to prefer the appeal in view of the restrictions and the rising number of cases in the country. Though it is contended by the learned counsel appearing for the respondents that the writ petitions are not maintainable without the NCLT on the party array, I am of the opinion that in the facts and circumstances of the instant cases, especially in view of Ext.P6 request for adjournment made by the counsel for the petitioners before the NCLT, the passing of an order interdicting all financial transactions by running companies would create serious prejudice to the company. The technical objection raised that the NCLT is not made a party to these proceedings, according to me, should not stand in the way of the consideration of these writ petitions in the peculiar circumstances prevalent at present. W.A.1083/2020 4 In view of the fact that an appeal before the NCLAT is not practically possible, it would be for the petitioners to approach the NCLT seeking appropriate modification of the orders. However, till such time, in view of the present situation prevalent, I am of the opinion that the petitioners should be permitted to carry out the day-to-day financial transactions as are necessary for the conduct of the companies. It is made clear that general body meetings shall not be conducted and withdrawal of amounts from the accounts of the company shall not be made except for the carrying out of the day-today administration. The further financial transaction shall be subject to further orders to be passed either by the NCLT after hearing the parties or by the NCLAT in appeal. These writ petitions are ordered accordingly.” 2. Facts leading to the appeal are that, appellants are the shareholders of RBG Enterprises Pvt. Ltd., Kochi, represented by its Managing Director, respondent No.1, owned by the members of a family consisting of the founder of the group named 'RBG', the husband of the 1st appellant; Radha Ballabh Gupta (HUF), their eldest son, Rajkumar Gupta, respondent No.2 herein, Ritu Gupta, wife of the 2nd respondent, Vishnukant Gupta, their son, and the 3rd respondent herein, Anika Gupta, wife of the 3rd respondent, Mahesh Kumar Gupta (HUF), their youngest son, the 4th respondent herein, and Minakshi Gupta, wife of the 4th respondent, the 2nd appellant herein. The company is a family enterprise and its management vests in the Board of Directors and not in any one individual, including the Managing Director, which is clearly stated in Clause 34 of the Articles of Association. W.A.1083/2020 5 3. Appellants have further stated that as per Section 96(1) of the Companies Act, 2013, the company should hold its Annual General Meeting (AGM) every year and not more than 15 months shall elapse between the date of one AGM and of the next. The failure to hold the AGM attracts penalty provided under Section 99 of the Act. Furthermore, the financial statements, including the balance sheet and profit and loss account with the Auditor's report and Director's report, are to be laid before the AGM, as per Section 136 of the Act. In case of default, the company would be liable to pay penalty of INR 25,000/- and every Director of the Company, who was in default, would be liable to pay penalty of INR 5,000/-. 4. Appellants have further stated that the 2nd respondent has not obtained approval from them or the above mentioned majority shareholders on the financial statements for the years 2015-16, 2016-17 and 2017-18, which have been filed by the 2nd respondent before the Registrar of Companies (ROC), Ernakulam and the Income Tax authorities surreptitiously. Appellants apprehended that the 2nd respondent has either forged or has caused to be forged the signatures of the majority shareholders with the intention to suggest that the financial statements have been approved by the shareholders at the Annual General Meeting, in the respective years. 5. Appellants have further contended that the financial statements filed before the Registrar of Companies, Ernakulam, for the years 2015-16, 2016- 17 and 2017-18 respectively, would disclose related party transactions, in W.A.1083/2020 6 contravention of the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and the transactions have not obtained the approval of the board of shareholders of the company. The majority shareholders, including the appellants, therefore, have sought intervention of the National Company Law Tribunal under Sections 96 and 97(1) of the Companies Act, for a direction to the 2 nd respondent viz., the Managing Director of RBG Enterprises Pvt. Ltd., to convene the AGM through company petitions viz., 98/KOB/291, 99/KOB/2019, 100/KOB/2019, 101/KOB/2019, 102/KOB/2019, & 103/KOB/2019. As an interim relief, NCLT has passed an order dated 03.10.2019 in C.P. No.99/KOB/2019, to restrain respondents 2 and 3 from resorting to related party transactions in the bank accounts of the company. 6. Appellants have further stated that they have filed C.P No.114/KOB/ 2019 before the National Company Law Tribunal under Sections 130, 241 & 242 of the Companies Act, 2013, for mismanagement and oppression of majority shareholders by the 2nd respondent in the above mentioned company. In the said petition, the appellants have elaborated various instances of mismanagement of the company, including misappropriation of funds, related party transactions and violation of the Act, in respect of holding of the AGM for the years 2015-16 to 2017-18. 7. Appellants have further stated that on 10.10.2019, the 2nd respondent convened a meeting of the Board of Directors, to consider, inter alia, holding of the AGM for the year 2018-19 on 30.10.2019. The majority shareholders of W.A.1083/2020 7 the company, including the appellants herein, challenged the proposals of the 2nd respondent before the NCLT, among other grounds, for violation of statutory provisions relating to convening of such meetings. The National Company Law Tribunal, vide order dated 25.10.2019 in I.A. No.49/2019 in C.P. No.99/KOB/2019, directed that the decisions taken at the Board Meeting on 10.10.2019 and at the AGM on 31.10.2019 would be subject to its approval. The 3rd respondent has suppressed the said order in W.P.(C) No.14341/2019. 8. Appellants have further stated that the majority shareholders have thereafter, adopted a number of resolutions, including one, to remove the 2nd respondent, as the Managing Director of the company. They have appointed the first appellant as the MD. The appellants have presented the resolutions to the NCLT for its approval in I.A. No.58/2019 in C.P. No.114/KOB/2019 and a transcript of the proceedings at the AGM in their rejoinder, in the same company petition. The National Company Law Tribunal referred the inter-party litigation to Retd.

  • The Gupta Empire: an Indian Golden Age the Gupta Empire, Which Ruled
    The Gupta Empire: An Indian Golden Age The Gupta Empire, which ruled the Indian subcontinent from 320 to 550 AD, ushered in a golden age of Indian civilization. It will forever be remembered as the period during which literature, science, and the arts flourished in India as never before. Beginnings of the Guptas Since the fall of the Mauryan Empire in the second century BC, India had remained divided. For 500 years, India was a patchwork of independent kingdoms. During the late third century, the powerful Gupta family gained control of the local kingship of Magadha (modern-day eastern India and Bengal). The Gupta Empire is generally held to have begun in 320 AD, when Chandragupta I (not to be confused with Chandragupta Maurya, who founded the Mauryan Empire), the third king of the dynasty, ascended the throne. He soon began conquering neighboring regions. His son, Samudragupta (often called Samudragupta the Great) founded a new capital city, Pataliputra, and began a conquest of the entire subcontinent. Samudragupta conquered most of India, though in the more distant regions he reinstalled local kings in exchange for their loyalty. Samudragupta was also a great patron of the arts. He was a poet and a musician, and he brought great writers, philosophers, and artists to his court. Unlike the Mauryan kings after Ashoka, who were Buddhists, Samudragupta was a devoted worshipper of the Hindu gods. Nonetheless, he did not reject Buddhism, but invited Buddhists to be part of his court and allowed the religion to spread in his realm. Chandragupta II and the Flourishing of Culture Samudragupta was briefly succeeded by his eldest son Ramagupta, whose reign was short.

  • Terrestrial Protected Areas and Managed Reaches Conserve Threatened Freshwater Fish in Uttarakhand, India
    PARKS www.iucn.org/parks parksjournal.com 2015 Vol 21.1 89 TERRESTRIAL PROTECTED AREAS AND MANAGED REACHES CONSERVE THREATENED FRESHWATER FISH IN UTTARAKHAND, INDIA Nishikant Gupta1*, K. Sivakumar2, Vinod B. Mathur2 and Michael A. Chadwick1 *Corresponding author: [email protected] 1. Department of Geography, King’s College London, UK 2. Wildlife Institute of India, Dehradun, India ABSTRACT Terrestrial protected areas and river reaches managed by local stakeholders can act as management tools for biodiversity conservation. These areas have the potential to safeguard fish species from stressors such as over-fishing, habitat degradation and fragmentation, and pollution. To test this idea, we conducted an evaluation of the potential for managed and unmanaged river reaches, to conserve threatened freshwater fish species. The evaluation involved sampling fish diversity at 62 sites in major rivers in Uttarakhand, India (Kosi, Ramganga and Khoh rivers) both within protected (i.e. sites within Corbett and Rajaji Tiger Reserves and within managed reaches), and unprotected areas (i.e. sites outside tiger reserves and outside managed reaches). In total, 35 fish species were collected from all sites, including two mahseer (Tor) species. Protected areas had larger individual fish when compared to individuals collected outside of protected areas. Among all sites, lower levels of habitat degradation were found inside protected areas. Non -protected sites showed higher impacts to water quality (mean threat score: 4.3/5.0), illegal fishing (4.3/5.0), diversion of water flows (4.5/5.0), clearing of riparian vegetation (3.8/5.0), and sand and boulder mining (4.0/5.0) than in protected sites.

  • 13. Indian Architecture(5.6
    Indian Architecture MODULE - V Painting, Performing Arts and Architecture Notes 13 INDIAN ARCHITECTURE t times it becomes very important to be reminded that we are that civilization which has spanned atleast 4,500 years and which has left its impact on Anearly everything in our lives and society. Imagine UNESCO has listed 830 World Heritage Sites, out of which 26 are in India. This is less than six other countries. Is this not a tangible proof of the creative genius and industry of this ancient land, people, and also of the gifts bestowed on it by nature. Be it the Bhimbetka’s pre historic rock art at one end or the innumerable palaces, mosques, temples, gurudwaras, churches or tombs and sprawling cities and solemn stupas. Going through the cities of Delhi, Agra, Jaipur, Mumbai and Calcutta etc. you find many beautiful buildings. Some are monuments, palaces, temples, churches, mosques and memorials. Many of them had their foundation before Christ and many after the coming of Christ. Many generations have been a part of this architecture which stands mighty and lofty reminding us of that glorious past which has been ours. This is because art and architecture forms an important part of Indian culture. Many distinctive features that we find in the architecture today developed throughout the long period of Indian history. The earliest and most remarkable evidence of Indian architecture is found in the cities of the Harappan Civilization which boast of a unique town planning. In the post Harappan period architectural styles have been classified as Hindu, Buddhist and Jain, The medieval period saw the synthesis of Persian and indigenous styles of architecture.

As a result, Kerala now has some of the Third World's highest levels of health, education, and social justice. Originally published in 1989, this book traces the role that movements of social justice played in Kerala's successful struggle to redistribute wealth and power. A 21-page introduction updates the earlier edition. This book underlines the following positive lessons that the Kerala experience offers to developing countries: Radical reforms deliver benefits to the poor even when per capita incomes remain low. Popular movements and militant progressive organizations with dedicated leaders are necessary to initiate and sustain reform. Despite their other benefits, radical reforms cannot necessarily create employment or raise per capita income.

  • The Bharatiya Janata Party's Online Campaign and Citizen Involvement
    International Journal of Communication 10(2016), 4389–4406 1932–8036/20160005 The Bharatiya Janata Party’s Online Campaign and Citizen Involvement in India’s 2014 Election KALYANI CHADHA PALLAVI GUHA University of Maryland College Park, USA The impact of the Internet on politics and electoral campaigns is the focus of considerable—and, as yet, unsettled—debate. This article focuses on the manner in which the Bharatiya Janata Party—which became the first party since 1984 to win an absolute majority in India’s parliament—engaged citizen supporters in the party’s successful social media campaign. Employing data from interviews with party functionaries and volunteers, we examine the extent to which interaction with supporters represented an effort to shift away from the traditional top-down model of campaigning toward a participatory approach. Keywords: India, BJP, election campaign, participation, citizens, 2014 The World’s Biggest Election The technological changes associated with the rise of the Internet have transformed many structures and methods of contemporary political communication, and their impact has been viewed as particularly significant in terms of altering the crucial but historically distant relationship between political campaigns and ordinary citizens (Margetts, 2006). Indeed, it has been asserted that the interactive potential of digital networked technologies has facilitated the unprecedented involvement of citizens in political campaigns, “reconnecting political parties with their civic roots by providing the basis for a more democratic mode of organization” (Gibson, 2015, p. 187). Certainly this claim was frequently articulated in the context of India’s 2014 general election, in which more than 554 million registered voters turned out at a record rate of 66.4% to give a decisive win to the Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party, or BJP, ending decades of fractious coalition rule in the country.

  • Samudragupta(350-375A.D)
    Magadh Mahila College Patna University Department of History Bhawana Singh(Guest Faculty) Email id- [email protected] B.A- 1st year Paper-1, Unit- 7 Samudragupta(350-375A.D) He was one among the greatest rulers of the Gupta Empire. In the fourth Shloka of Prayag Prashashti there is an evidence of appointment of Samudragupta as the successor of the royal throne by Chandragupta I. In the inscription of Vakatakas also Samudragupta is mentioned as the successor of Chandragupta I. The Airand inscription also mentions the same fact about his succession. But many contemporary historical texts doubts about the unopposed succession of Samudragupta. Aryamanjushremulkalpa states that there occurs a war of succession Katch and Samudragupta. It is believed that Samudragupta was not the elder son of Charndragupta I. Katch was the elder son and due to him being the elder son Katch was legally to be his successor. But , realizing the inclination of Chandragupta towards Samudragupta Katch minted a few of his coins even before Chandragpta‟s death. Chandragupta I wanted to appoint his skilled son to be the next ruler of the Gupta Empire. Thus, by realizing the forthcoming war of succession Chandragupta declared Samudragupta as his successor in his open assembly.
