The Bench, headed by Chief Justice J. Chelameswar, made the observation when the writ petition filed by Janata Party President Subramanian Swamy and others against the Islamic Bank came up for hearing.

The State Government sought to vacate the interim order restraining the State Government and Kerala State Industrial Development Corporation (KSIDC) from commencing the operations of the Islamic Bank.
