The Court has very aptly decided the instant case and formed a strong precedent for many
more cases that arose with respect to the vicarious liability of the state for the acts of its
employers.
The concept of sovereign immunity and the rule of King can do no wrong are no longer
applicable. The Crown proceeding Act removes such unlimited immunity in the common
law countries.
