Bombay High Court disposes PIL pending since the last eighteen years
The Bombay High Court disposed of a Public Interest Litigation (PIL), pending since the last eighteen years, raising the grievances in respect of town planning classification of the area around Worli Seaface Road.
The Public Interest Litigation (PIL) was filed in 2006, on the situation that existed eighteen years ago.
The Counsel appearing for the respective Respondents pointed out that substantial changes have taken place in the area since the PIL was filed.
“No affidavit is filed in respect of the present position. No purpose will be served by keeping the PIL pending”, the Division Bench of Acting Chief Justice Nitin Jamdar and Justice Sandeep V. Marne held.
However, the Bench clarified that if the cause survives, it is always open to a bona fide public spirited person/ entity to invoke the jurisdiction of this Court after complying the Bombay High Court Public Interest Litigation Rules, 2010.
