KANTAPRASAD D. PATEL vs MUN. CORPN. OF GREATER BOMBAY

The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal, affirming the Bombay High Court's decision that the appellant failed to prove the existence of a structure prior to April 1, 1962, as required for legal retention under municipal regulations. The Court held that the Additional Commissioner had the authority to review the earlier order and that the appellant's claims regarding title and lawful construction were unsubstantiated. The ruling emphasized the necessity of establishing bona fide title and compliance with legal permissions for property retention.
