Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Bombay High Court's dismissal of a writ petition challenging a notice for the removal of hoardings erected in a Heritage Precinct, as per the Maharashtra Heritage Regulations, 1995. The Court found that the Maharashtra Heritage Conservation Committee (MHCC) acted within its authority and that the appellant's claims regarding the Mahalaxmi Precinct not being a Heritage Precinct were unsubstantiated. The Court affirmed the High Court's decision, emphasizing the importance of preserving heritage sites under the relevant regulations.
