M ost people consider Boardroom  a picnic spot, and attending or holding board meeting is considered as a time-pass compliance process by most of the listed and unlisted companies. But, let me tell you board meeting minutes is one of the most important evidences of company's proper functioning, and the Courts also rely on papers of board meeting be it directors notice, attendance register, minutes etc. NOT HOLDING BOARD MEETING COULD RESULT INTO LAND DEAL CANCELLATION This case happened when NCLT declared the sale to be null and void in oppression & mismanagement case [ Elaine Info Solution Pvt.

Ayodhya judgement resolved the long pending tussle  between Hindus and Muslims. Resolving this religious fight was not an easy task for Hon'ble Supreme Court (" SC "). Drawing  evidences from the muted history were the most herculean task for the SC, though observations of High Court was very much helpful for the SC to end this religious fight which started from 1856-7 .

But to reduce this judgement into readable strength, I mainly focused on core question which was the bone of contention.  Further, for the sake of authenticity I have written page numbers of this judgement against paragraphs ( wherever required ) so that you can cross-verify or read in detail if you feel so. The bone of contention before the SC was...
