Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of the writ application under Article 226 of the Constitution, stating that the case involved disputed facts regarding the ownership and transfer of land leased to M/s Prachi Vanijya (P) Ltd. The Court emphasized that such factual disputes cannot be resolved in writ proceedings and that the parties are free to seek redress in civil court. The judgment reinforces the principle that Article 226 cannot be used to adjudicate on matters requiring factual determination.
