Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeal concerning the dismissal of charges against trustees of the Lilavati Kirtilal Mehta Medical Trust under the Bombay Public Trust Act, 1950. The Court held that while the trustees were found negligent, they were not liable for malfeasance as they had delegated their duties to the deceased Managing Trustee, Vijay Mehta. The Court upheld the findings of the Joint Charity Commissioner and dismissed the appeal, affirming the lower court's decision.
