Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Bombay High Court regarding the Slum Rehabilitation Scheme, emphasizing the importance of verifying the eligibility of slum dwellers as per the guidelines set forth by the Slum Rehabilitation Authority (SRA). The Court noted that the SRA had previously cancelled Annexure-II due to fraudulent documentation submitted by the Maruti Nagar Co-operative Housing Society, thereby validating the petitions of Adarsh and Saidham for rehabilitation. The Court reinforced that the SRA's authority to scrutinize and approve rehabilitation proposals is paramount, ensuring that only legitimate claims are processed under the scheme.
