Why It Matters
This order shows the Court asking a petitioner who came directly to it to approach the jurisdictional High Court first (para 2), while taking steps to avoid delay: the record is transferred within two days, and the High Court's Chief Justice is asked to list the case before a Division Bench on a fixed date (paras 3-4). A reader should note what the order does not do: it does not decide the interim relief prayer, which it leaves to the Division Bench (para 5), and it expresses no opinion on the merits (para 7). The petitioner may amend his prayers and file additional documents (para 6).
