Dear Experts,
This query is related to this judgement available at http://lobis.nic.in/dhc/SRB/judgement/23-05-2011/SRB20052011CW24912000.pdf
It is about the Delhi High Court nullifying the validity of July 13, 1962 notification exempting air guns, air rifles, air pistols from the requirement of license under the Arms Act 1959. I do understand that Hon'ble Delhi High Court did not apply its mind to the provision of Section 41(a) of the Arms Act 1959.
The query is: Does High Court have power to nullify a Central legislation under judicial review beyond its territorial jurisdiction or its effect has to be within its jurisdiction?
