Punitive damages from visa-authorities through Writ Petition

Artist Dr. Mumbiram is an Indian citizen. His wife and son have German passports. Through various malafide avoidance tactics the local Foreigner Registration Office failed to forward without any reason our application for a 5 year visa extension for our son, who has a German passport, to the Office of the Principal Secretary(special) Home Dept. Maharashtra, who is the competent authority to grant such extensions as well as the authority to seek redressal of grievances against local FROs. Our personal appearances at the Princ.Sec.’s Office, letters and a formal complaint against the local FROs also produce no relief. For a period of over 2 years we were even without an interim visa extension for our son, whose earlier visa had expired in the meantime. We have filed a Writ Petition in the Bombay High Court requesting the court to direct the local FRO and the Princ. Sec.’s Office to grant us the 5year visa extension for which we had applied for over 2 years ago. We have also asked the court to direct the Respondents to pay us compensation for the grievous damages we suffered on account of the malafide inactions of the respondents. In the first hearing the court appeared almost certain to grant our request for the visa extension but we are not so sure about the compensation part. We feel justice will not be fully served if we only get the visa extensions that we should have gotten 2 years ago. We feel we deserve exemplary damages (punitive damages) from the respondents for the damages we suffered on account of the malafide inactions of the Respondents. How should we argue before the court for our request for such compensation ?

right to live with dignity

as our India is rated as top one ( Rs 15372 Billion Crores as per the media reports ) in black list: highest black money accounts in swiss bank; can we file a case in supreme court or International Court of justice, praying the right to live with dignity under Art 21, by transfering the total black money in to our govt of India account.
Is it possible/practicable? If so how?

Choice of Division Bench for Writ Petition in Bombay High Court

After getting our register number for writ petition (criminal) under Art.226 against Maharashtra Gov. and others at Bombay High Court,do we automatically get assigned to a specific court ?
Our online case status says division bench.
At this pre-admission level do we have a choice about which division bench (which Judges) ?
We wish to make circulation for early first hearing and immediately request interim relief.

right to liberty

dear sir/madam,
In an Examination hall, flying squad came and took up malpractice check-up, during which the students, of age 16-22 years age, are asked to remove their dresses, in search of chits.In this case, any chits found, they are debarred successive exams and their entire previous exams are cancelled. in this aspect i would like to know and it is necessitated to take an advise:

1. Can a student be punished retrospcetively under malpractice?
2. Can a student be checked, by removing their clothes or touching their personal belongings, under malpractice check ?
3. Is it not the violation of Art 20(1) and 21?
4. Is it not the abuse of the children?

thanks, in advance, for one and all.

2. The Delhi Right to Inforamtion Act, 2001
3. The Rajasthan RTI Act, 2000
4. The Orissa Right to Information Act, 2002
5. The Karnataka RTI ACt, 2000
6. Goa RTI ACt, 1997

My question whether information pertaining to a particular state government office can be sought invoking the Central Act or do I have to invoke the respective State Act. Please clarify?.
