LAXMAN vs STATE OF MADHYA PRADESH .

The Supreme Court held that the notification issued by the Madhya Pradesh government, which imposed higher grazing charges on 'foreign cattle' and restricted their transit, violated Articles 14 and 19(1)(e), (f), and (g) of the Constitution. The Court found no rational basis for differentiating between cattle owners from Madhya Pradesh and those from other states, and deemed the 45-day transit limit unreasonable. However, the Court upheld the state's authority to prescribe transit routes to prevent damage to forests, affirming the right of citizens to move freely throughout India.
