Orissa high court upholds govt decision to exclude some SHGs from paddy procurement
The Orissa high court has backed the state government's decision to exclude certain women's self-help groups from paddy procurement, stating their engagement since 2019 didn't grant indefinite rights. The court found the exclusion, based on a performance review and public interest, to be a valid policy decision, not violating constitutional principles. Natural justice principles were deemed substantially met.
