The High Court of Karnataka has pulled up the Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences besides admonishing its registrar for filling a criminal case of cheating against an advocate, who was among varsity’s panel of advocates, accusing him of conniving with opposite parties in a litigation and representing the university sans its authorisation.
While directing RGUHS and its registrar, M.R. Ravikumar, to exercise caution while registering such reckless complaints, the court also cautioned them that any such iteration of the kind of haste would be viewed seriously.
Justice M. Nagaprasanna passed the order while allowing a petition filed by advocate Shivakumar S. Badwadagi of Dharwad and quashing the First Information Report against him by RGHUS.
