Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's directive to shift milk dairies in Jodhpur due to public health concerns under Article 226 of the Constitution. The Court recognized the significant nuisance caused by stray cattle and the unhygienic conditions affecting the city's residents. The ruling emphasized the need for urban planning and public health considerations in managing dairy operations within city limits, affirming the High Court's decision as necessary for the welfare of the public.
