Nagar Panchayat,Kurwai & Anr vs Mahesh Kumar Singhal & Ors

The Supreme Court held that the Nagar Panchayat, under the Madhya Pradesh Municipality Act, 1961, has the authority to impose parking fees for vehicles using the bus stand, as per Sections 357(3), 349(2), 357(5), and 358(4)(b) and (d). The Court emphasized that no one has a fundamental right to use another's land without permission or payment, and the fees collected can be utilized for public benefit. The High Court's ruling that denied the Nagar Panchayat's power to collect such fees was overturned, affirming the Nagar Panchayat's right to charge for the use of its facilities.
