SULOCHANABAI SWAROPCHAND CHAWRE vs THE ADDITIONAL COMMISSIONER, AMRAVATI DIVISION, AMRAVATI & ORS

Bench: 2 — Uday Umesh Lalit, S. Ravindra Bhat

In Brief

A landowner (appellant) challenged orders directing creation of a 6-meter road through her plot to provide access to a neighbour's (respondent) agricultural field. The High Court dismissed her writ petition without detailed reasoning. The Supreme Court allowed her appeal, finding the High Court's order inadequately reasoned on critical issues: whether the respondent had any legal right or easement of necessity to demand such access. The Court remanded the matter to the High Court for fresh, detailed consideration while maintaining status quo and preventing the respondent from utilizing any land-conversion permission pending final disposal."
