Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court set aside the interim order of the Bombay High Court that had stayed prosecution proceedings against a tenant for unauthorized construction on tenanted premises. The Court held that such relief should not have been granted, emphasizing the importance of allowing the prosecution to proceed. The appeals were disposed of with a directive for the High Court to expedite the resolution of the pending writ petition, leaving all contentions open for consideration.
