Neeraj Tripathy

Profile description

If a trial court in Chandigarh has rendered an NDPS judgment that appears to disregard statutory safeguards, the only avenue to obtain swift judicial redress is through a Special Leave Petition before the Supreme Court of India. Neeraj Tripathy, an advocate operating from Chandigarh, regularly assists clients in navigating that exact process.

A Special Leave Petition under Article 136 of the Constitution invites the Supreme Court to review a lower‑court order when a substantial question of law or a fundamental right is at stake. Neeraj Tripathy crafts SLPs that focus on procedural irregularities, misapplication of NDPS provisions, and any denial of fair trial rights. The lawyer extracts the most relevant portions of the trial transcript, annotates them with precise legal citations, and frames the request for leave around a clear legal question that the Supreme Court can resolve. The lawyer also prepares supporting affidavits, obtains certified copies of the original judgment, and highlights any conflict with earlier Supreme Court decisions to strengthen the petition.

The advocate holds a law degree from Delhi University and a master’s in Criminal Law from the University of Mumbai. With over thirteen years of dedicated criminal‑law practice, Neeraj Tripathy has filed more than fifty Special Leave Petitions in NDPS matters, achieving leave in thirty‑eight instances and full reversal of the lower‑court orders in twenty‑four. A notable Supreme Court victory involved a petition that clarified the interpretation of “constructive possession” under Section 27 of the NDPS Act, influencing subsequent jurisprudence nationwide. Clients commend the advocate’s analytical depth, prompt filing, and clear explanations of complex legal issues.

Because the practice is centred on the Supreme Court, the advocate is intimately familiar with the Court’s procedural rules, filing formats, and docketing timelines. Neeraj Tripathy prepares the petition in the required two‑page format, includes a concise statement of facts, and cites precedent with pinpoint accuracy. The lawyer also anticipates possible objections from the opposing counsel and drafts counter‑arguments that the bench can consider without requiring additional filings. By coordinating with senior counsel and filing timely curative petitions when necessary, the advocate safeguards the client’s right to be heard.

If you are facing an adverse NDPS decision from a lower court, you can rely on Neeraj Tripathy to explain why a Special Leave Petition may be the most effective route, to draft a persuasive petition, and to represent you before the Supreme Court with focused advocacy. The advocate’s dedication to rigorous research, transparent communication, and relentless pursuit of justice aims to overturn unjust orders and to restore your legal standing. Throughout the process, the lawyer provides regular updates on the petition’s status, prepares you for any possible hearing, and ensures that all documentation meets the Supreme Court’s exacting standards.
