MAKARAND DATTATREYA SUGAVKAR vs MUN.CORP.OF GR.MUMBAI .

The Supreme Court upheld the Bombay High Court's decision rejecting the appellant's request for a mandamus to the Municipal Corporation to repair his flat, as the appellant had not established his entitlement to such relief under the Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act, 1960. The Court emphasized that the appellant should pursue the execution of the order from the Cooperative Appellate Court instead. The judgment clarified the procedural obligations of cooperative societies and the role of municipal authorities in building repairs under the Mumbai Municipal Corporation Act, 1888, particularly Sections 354, 475-A, 489, and 491.
