<h1>'Reason to Believe' Needs Evidence in Search and Seizure: No Arbitrary or Whimsical Decisions Allowed.</h1> The expression 'reason to believe' in the context of search and seizure provisions requires that the formation of opinion, though subjective, must be grounded on material evidence and not be arbitrary or whimsical. In the case of N Nagendra Rao & Co, it was emphasized that this serves as a check on the power to seize goods. Similarly, in Lekhmani Mewal Das, it was established that the belief must be held in good faith, with reasons having a rational connection or relevant bearing on the belief, ensuring they are not extraneous or irrelevant.
