Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the appeals under Article 136 against the Bombay High Court's orders, affirming that the construction by respondent no. 8 did not violate Section 44 of the Town and Country Planning Act, 1974, as the report from the National Institute of Oceanography indicated it was not within 100 meters of the High Tide Line. The Court held that the High Court's dismissal of the writ petition and the subsequent review petition was justified based on the evidence presented. The appeals were thus rejected, upholding the lower court's findings.
