Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Orissa High Court's order directing the removal of encroachments within the hospital campus, emphasizing the need for maintaining hygienic conditions. The Court clarified that the appellants, whose tenements are outside the campus, need not fear eviction based on the High Court's order, as it pertains only to unauthorized structures within the campus. The Court affirmed that any wrongful eviction of those outside the campus could be challenged in the High Court.
