Abuse of a well-intentioned legislation can undermine its objectives, HC says
MUMBAI: The Bombay high court on Wednesday fined a senior citizen for misusing welfare provisions in the Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007, to derail the recovery proceedings initiated by the State Bank of India (SBI) against her son and daughter-in-law.
A division bench of justices BP Colabawalla and Somasekhar Sundaresan ordered the woman, Bharati Khandhar, to donate ₹1 lakh to Helpage India, a non-profit that works for the welfare of the neglected elderly. The abuse of well-intentioned legislation can undermine its objectives and social impact, said the bench.
