Sabka Vishwas Scheme deadline extension plea rejected, as time limits held mandatory and not extendable by writ petitions

The dominant issue was whether the time limit prescribed under the Sabka Vishwas Legacy Dispute Resolution Scheme could be extended by judicial intervention. Applying its earlier decision on the Scheme's timelines, the SC held that the prescribed limitation is mandatory and not amenable to extension in writ jurisdiction. Consequently, the HC's dismissal of the writ petitions seeking extension was affirmed, and the appeals were dismissed.

The petitioners' request to extend the time was denied, and the High Court's dismissal of the writ petitions was affirmed.
