Mayor Municipal Corporation vs Govind Bajirao Navpute & Ors

Bench: 2 — <UNKNOWN>, <UNKNOWN>

In Brief

This case involved multiple consolidated civil appeals by the Mayor Municipal Corporation challenging the High Court's decision to extend time for preparation of a revised development plan under the Maharashtra Regional and Town Planning Act, 1966. The draft plan had remained at the preparation stage for years with significant variations made by the planning authority. The Supreme Court held that the High Court's direction for a fresh combined development plan was justified given these circumstances and the procedural irregularities. All appeals were dismissed, upholding the High Court's judgment without interfering in the development plan preparation process.
