Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the Rajasthan High Court's non-speaking order dismissing a Public Interest Litigation regarding encroachment on a public pathway to the Mandir of Lord Khatushyamji was improper. The Court emphasized that the High Court should have provided a reasoned order considering the appellant's contentions, especially given the series of interim orders issued. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the High Court's order and remitted the matter for a detailed consideration in accordance with law, leaving all contentions open.
