    The Supreme Court slaps Rs. 5000 costs on a person who challenged demolition of  a "Corona Mata Mandir" constructed by her.

    One Deepmala Srivastava had filed a writ petition under Article 32 of the Constitution of India and contended that her fundamental rights have been infringed after a temple constructed by her with collaboration with her husband for "Corona Mata Mandir" has been demolished.

    "So far the petitioner has not constructed temples for all other possible diseases infecting the people of this country!", remarked the bench of Justices Sanjay Kishan Kaul and MM Sundresh in the order.

    The court noted that the land itself was disputed as recorded and a police complaint was made in this behalf. The bench observed that she also has not taken recourse to any  appropriate legal remedy in this regard.

    We are of the view that this is clearly an abuse of the process of jurisdiction of this Court under Article 32 of the Constitution of India, the court said while dismissing the writ petition. The costs of Rs. 5000 was directed to be deposited with the Supreme Court Advocates on Record Welfare Fund within four weeks.
