Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the special leave petitions filed by builders challenging the Patna High Court's interim order dated 1.10.2001, which restrained construction activities within 110 feet of Bailey Road. The Court held that since the petitioners were not parties to the original proceedings, they should seek relief from the High Court directly. The judgment emphasizes the importance of following proper procedural channels in judicial matters, particularly in public interest litigations under Article 226 of the Constitution.
