High Court Questions Litigants Over Approaching Supreme Court For Rs 200 Fee

Justice B. Vijaysen Reddy of the High Court has criticized both parties for taking a <b>Rs 200 registration fee dispute</b> all the way up to the Supreme Court. The court questioned the necessity of such legal battles over small amounts, noting that the petitioner moved higher consumer commissions and the apex court before returning to the bench. The case stems from a petition filed by Shankar from Visakhapatnam, challenging a Rs 200 outpatient registration fee charged by Apollo Hospital. Following discussions with the bench, the petitioner agreed to withdraw the petition, and the court subsequently concluded the proceedings.
