Abstract:
A three-judge panel of the Supreme Court set aside a protest rally issued by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) barring any organization from providing banking services to anyone dealing with crypto or cryptocurrencies. The apex court did so on the grounds that the ban, which applies to all RBI-controlled facilities, was unequal.Judgment itself is designed as a film show – complete with flashback, backgrounds, conspiracy and climax – and is designed to be read by heart. Interestingly, on page 172 of the 180-page decision, the apex court actually appears to be referring to the support of the central bank circle.
