The court held that the Original Authority and Revisional Authority misconstrued the scheme and objectives of the Baggage Rules. The petitioner, a foreign national, brought a gold chain and kara by wearing them while arriving from Bangkok, which was not in a concealed manner. The case was found to be squarely covered by the judgments in Pushpa Lekhumal Tulani and Vigneswaran Sethuraman vs. Union of India.
