The Punjab and Haryana High Court dismissed a defamation petition filed by Sukhpal Singh Khaira and imposed a fine of Rs 6 lakh. The court observed that the petition was an abuse of the judicial process. The case involved an administrative action to remove an encroachment on panchayat land in Khaira's ancestral village, which the court identified as part of a public road. The court criticized the attempt to give administrative proceedings a 'defamatory' color.
