Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of the writ petition by the Bombay High Court, affirming that the appellant-Trust's applications for land allotment under the Maharashtra Public Trusts Act were not processed in accordance with the established policy requiring public advertisement for allotment. The Court emphasized that the Trust must follow the prescribed procedures for land allocation and that the authorities acted within their jurisdiction. The appeal was dismissed, reinforcing the procedural requirements for land allotment to educational institutions.
