Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Bombay High Court's decision to vacate the interim order maintaining status quo regarding the eviction of wives of retired police personnel from service quarters, governed by Section 31 of the Bombay Police Act. The Court found that the appellants failed to establish a prima facie case for interim relief, as the police quarters were necessary for active personnel to respond to emergencies. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, confirming the High Court's order and vacating the status quo previously granted.
