Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision regarding the auction of trust land under Section 36 of the Bombay Public Trust Act, 1950, while noting that the High Court may have overstepped its jurisdiction. The Court emphasized that the High Court's direction was necessary to protect the interests of the trust, despite concerns about jurisdiction. The petitioners' suppression of material facts led to the denial of special leave to appeal.
