AG, Punjab. ..… SHEEL NAGU, CHIEF JUSTICE (Oral) The present petition in the shape of Public Interest Litigation (PIL) has been moved essentially raising the alleged public cause of human trafficking. However, a bare perusal of the pleadings reveals that there are no specific allegations or data provided as regards the issue of human trafficking and thus the allegations are vague and non specific. The entire petition appears to be vague based on omnibus statement and, therefore, same cannot be entertained. 2. Accordingly, the petition (CWP-PIL-193-2025) stands dismissed with liberty to the petitioner to file a properly constituted petition. 3. CM-225-CWPIL-2025 stands disposed of.
