CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION
PUBLIC INTEREST LITIGATION NO.61 OF 2007
Swatantryaveer Sawarkar
Smarak Samiti .. Petitioner
Vs.
Nashik Municipal Corporation
and Ors. .. Respondents
Mr.P.P.Tendulkar for the petitioner
CORAM : J.N.PATEL &
A.A.SAYED, JJ.
DATED : 10TH OCTOBER, 2007
P.C.:
. The petitioner has already intervened in
the writ petition filed by the respondent no.3 to 5
including the builder being Writ Petition 2632 of
2006 where there is an interim order passed by the
court. The petitioner can very well agitate the
issue in the said petition rather than prosecuting
the public interest litigation. With these
observation, the Public Interest Litigation is
disposed of.

As recorded by the court registry
Litigation brought on behalf of the public interest rather than a personal grievance, relaxing the usual rule of locus standi.
