Sabir Siddiq Malik vs Bombay Environmental Action Group & Ors

The Supreme Court held that the question of unauthorized occupation of land in Sanjay Gandhi National Park cannot be resolved in a writ petition due to the existence of factual disputes. The Court emphasized that such matters must be adjudicated by a competent statutory authority, and the appellants are permitted to approach the appropriate authority within four months. The Court varied the High Court's order regarding the grievance redressal committee, clarifying it cannot replace the statutorily prescribed body, and dismissed the appeals.
