The court on June 4 had dismissed the suit filed by Juhi Chawla against the introduction of 5G technology in India. Back then, the court had said that the suit was filed to gain publicity and called it a “waste of judicial time”. “I have never seen in my judicial career a plaintiff who doesn’t want to pay the court fee,” added the court. You say the court has no power to impose the costs but the court has the power to issue contempt”. The plaintiffs are directed to deposit the cost of Rs 20 lakh with Delhi State Legal Services Authority within one week,” said the court.
