Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed applications for contempt and perjury against P.K. Pangare under the Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Act, 1976. The Court held that the dismissal of the S.L.P. against Pangare was valid and that the subsequent mutation of land records in favor of Pangare was improper due to the lack of challenge to the High Court's order by MHADA. The Court emphasized the importance of adhering to procedural requirements in land acquisition matters, ultimately ruling in favor of MHADA's authority over the land in question.
