This case involves a challenge to the guidelines issued by the Central Bureau of Narcotics (CBN) regarding the registration of sales contracts for importing poppy seeds from Turkey. The petitioners alleged cartelization, monopolization, and fraudulent practices in the import of poppy seeds, and sought to quash the impugned guidelines. The High Court dismissed the petition, relying on its previous decision in Devki Global Capital, which held that the registration of sales contracts by the Turkish Grain Board (TMO) is an internal matter governed by Turkish law, over which Indian authorities have no jurisdiction. The Court emphasized that the CBN's role is limited to registering contracts duly registered by the TMO, as per the MoU between India and Turkey. The Court also cited the Supreme Court's ruling in Balco Employees' Union, which cautions against judicial interference in matters of economic policy unless there is manifest illegality or mala fide intent. Finding no such grounds, the Court upheld the guidelines and dismissed the petition.
