Avishek Goenka & Ors vs Union Of India
26. The manufacturer of the vehicle may manufacture the vehicles with tinted glasses which have Visual Light Transmission (VLT) of safety glasses windscreen (front and rear) as 70 per cent VLT and side glasses as 40 per cent VLT, respectively. No black film or any other material can be pasted on the windscreens and side glasses of a vehicle.
27. For the reasons afore-stated, we prohibit the use of black films of any VLT percentage or any other material upon the safety glasses, windscreens (front and rear) and side glasses of all vehicles throughout the country.
Reading the operative part of the Hon’ble Supreme Court Judgment, it clear that there is discrimination as between VLT glasses manufacturer with that of VLT black films manufacturer. Why?
