Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the legality of the Slum Rehabilitation Scheme and the issuance of Annexure-II under the Maharashtra Slum Areas (Improvement, Clearance and Redevelopment) Act, 1971. The Court held that the SRA's decision to cancel Annexure-II due to fraudulent documents submitted by Maruti Nagar Co-operative Housing Society was valid, emphasizing the need for transparency and integrity in slum rehabilitation processes. The Court upheld the SRA's authority to reject proposals based on prior fraudulent activities, thereby affirming the rejection of Maruti's proposal and allowing the proposals of Adarsh and Saidham to proceed.
