Manav Samaj Vikas Samiti v. Union of India and Ors.
Case brief
What is this about?
The High Court of Bombay encountered a writ petition where the petitioner's counsel stated the case no longer survived due to a prior order declaring the land not to be forest land. The court accepted this submission and disposed of the petition with liberty to the petitioner to take necessary legal steps. Costs were reserved.
What did the court decide?
The petition was disposed of with liberty to the petitioner to take such steps as may be permissible in law; each party to bear its own costs.
